The Yankees and Red Sox, the two most storied franchises in Major League Baseball (MLB), prepare to face off in a crucial Sunday Night Baseball game at Yankee Stadium. With playoff implications looming, both teams will be vying for a crucial victory.
Aaron Judge, the reigning AL Home Run Derby champion, has been on a tear this season, slashing .326/.440/.674 with 40 home runs and 92 RBI in just 119 games. The model predicts Judge to continue his hot streak, with an average of 0.7 RBI in this matchup. Interestingly, Judge has never faced the opposing pitcher, Dustin May, but the model still favours Judge's Over 0.5 RBI as a four-star play, with odds of +105.
On the mound for the Yankees is Carlos Rodon, who has given up eight earned runs over 10 innings in two starts against the Red Sox in June. The over/under for Rodon's total strikeouts is set at 6.5. Rodon's counterpart, May, has a 4.59 ERA on the season, with the over/under for his total outs recorded set at 15.5.
The Yankees are the clear favourites for the game, with odds of -162, while the Red Sox are a +133 underdog. The over/under for total runs scored in the game is 8.5. The model predicts an offensive explosion, with an average of over 10 runs combined in this game.
Both teams currently hold AL Wild Card spots, adding an extra layer of intensity to the already heated rivalry. This series has seen nine runs or more scored in two of the first three games, suggesting another high-scoring encounter could be on the cards.
The first pitch is scheduled for 7:10 p.m. ET at Yankee Stadium, marking the end of an exciting weekend of MLB action. Judge is also the favourite (-290) to win AL MVP honours, adding another reason for the Yankees to hope for a victory.
This game promises to be a thrilling spectacle, with two of the league's best teams battling it out in a crucial matchup. Tune in to catch all the action as the Yankees and Red Sox renew their rivalry.
