Oakland is winning with great pitching and defense, and are coming off a 3-0 win last night. The UNDER is 6-0 in the Athletics' last six against the American League East. Lefty Tommy Milone goes here and the UNDER is 5-1-1 in his last seven starts as a road favorite of -110 to -150. Milone struck out four and held the White Sox to 1 run on 5 hits over six innings last week. He faces a struggling Tampa Bay offense, one ranked #16 in runs scored, #20 in batting average with no power (#26 in slugging). At least they can pitch, with veteran lefty Erik Bedard (2.78 ERA) a good addition. The UNDER is 13-4-2 when the Rays have a left-handed starter in this park, so like last night look for more defense than offense. Go with the UNDER tonight in Tampa Bay.
