Texas at Tampa Bay

The Tampa Bay Rays opened the season 14-0 and have become the team to beat in MLB. Not far behind are the Texas Rangers who spent a lot of money and rebuilt their team. Tampa Bay is playing very well right now as they are 6-0 in their last six games. Ray's pitching has been outstanding as they have held eight of their previous ten opponents to 2 runs or fewer, and nine of the ten have scored 3 or fewer runs. This game also fits a game-time situation. When a home team game starts in the twilight or sun shadow time, from 4 PM to before 7 PM, and they are a home favorite with a .610 or better winning percentage from game 27 on, they are an impressive 181-83 with an ROI of +9.1%.
