The Chicago White Sox lost by a score of 3-2 in the series opener at home versus Cleveland, and I think we could see another pitcher's duel in the Windy City here on Tuesday. These teams have a long history of playing low scoring games, as 24 of the last 28 meetings have failed to reach the total.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Pitching - The Tribe will send Carlos Carrasco to the mound, and he's been one of baseball's best pitchers in the second half of the season. Carrasco (12-9, 3.53 ERA) allowed just one run on four hits, striking out 11 over 6.2 innings in a win over the Yankees his last time out. He posted a 1.47 ERA in four starts in August. Chicago counters with left-hander Carlos Rodon, who is 1-0 with a 1.80 ERA in two starts versus Cleveland this year.

2. Home Cookin' - The under is 4-1 in Rodon's last five starts, and the White Sox have seen the total go under in 14 of their last 16 home games versus Cleveland.

3. X-Factor - Carrasco is 8-3 on the road this season, and he's posted a 1.17 ERA in his last six road starts.


Selection: This is a play on Cleveland@Chicago to go UNDER the total (8*)
