New York at Los Angeles

The New York Yankees have lost two straight and Masahiro Tanaka has given up 16 runs (15 earned) and 26 hits his last four starts in 24 1/3 innings. Tanaka won his last outing against Tampa Bay, but he allowed four runs in seven innings and he has a 5.12 ERA in August. The Yankees didn't play yesterday and they have lost 13 of their last 16 games after a day off. Los Angeles comes off a 6-4 win last night over Seattle and the Angels have won 12 of their last 17 home games. Also, the Angels have won seven of Jered Weaver's last eight home starts against the Yankees. New York is 26-32 on the road and 29th in the major leagues with a .679 OPS in away games. This is a good spot for the home underdog, so play the Angels.
