I.L. GAME OF THE MONTH (8-0 RECORD) *VERY EARLY*
(MLB) Arizona vs. Detroit,
Point Spread: -1.50 | -123.00 Arizona (Away)
Result: Win
The Diamondbacks have won four straight, two against the Tigers, and all four on the road. Those last four wins have all been by four or more runs. Their ace is on the mound on Sunday. Gallen allowed more hits than usual against the Braves but he still held them to 2 ER. That is about average for the right-hander, on usually about six innings of work. The Tigers, now 1-9, haven't been getting many innings from their starters. Sunday's starter Wentz is one of the culprits, with most of his outings under five innings. He has given up almost a run an inning, too many the result of home runs. The Tigers have a very long list of injuries, most of them pitchers. They are last in runs-scored this season, and their bullpen has been overworked, and just average in effectiveness lately. The D-backs are a strong fifth in runs scored and hitting left-handed pitching at a .310 clip in their last ten games. Take Arizona on the run line at -1 1/2. 10*!
