Tampa Bay at New York

Last year Tampa Bay was a Yankee-killer. This season not so much as the Yankess have taken six of eight. At home here with Chien-Ming Wang on the mound, I like the Bronx Bombers a lot. He's 7-1 at home with a 3.24 ERA. In his last three starts he's given up just 7 runs in 21 innings. New York is hot having won 9 of 13 games and coming off a sweep of Texas. Wang has already beaten Tampa Bay this season. On July 8th he allowed one run in 8.33 innings of play. Road underdogs of +175 to +250 starting a pitcher who gives up 0.5 or less HR's/start, with a team batting average of .260 or worse on the season are 7-43 (14%) over the last 5 seasons. New York scores 5.6 per game while Tampa Bay gets just 4.1 per on the road. Yankees here.
