Chip's 'Guaranteed' AL Power Play Winner
(MLB) Chi White Sox vs. Oakland,
Money Line: -121.00 Chi White Sox (Away)
Result: Win
Chicago White Sox at Oakland 3:00 ET
White Sox over A's- Both these clubs enter the playoffs after their most recent shaky play as Oakland has lost nine of their last 17 while the White Sox went into the tank as soon as they clinched their first playoff berth since 2008. Chicago enter this fry losers in 7-of-8 and 9-of-12 including 0-5 on the road. Now, here comes the part I hate (because the A's have been good to 'us.') as Oakland 8-1 in their last nine home games as underdog and that is strong but that was this season, because they are 2-8 in their last 10 'playoff' games as underdogs. Oakland has destroyed the White Sox over the years going 5-1 of last and are 23-51 in their last 73 games in Oakland. Chicago will send Lucas 'No-Hit' Giolito (4-3, 3.48 ERA) to the hill and his career high of 13 strikeouts came in six innings against t4he A's last august in Chicago. Meanwhile the A's will start lefty Jesus Luzardo (3-2, 4.12) and he has been outstanding at home going 3-1 with a 2.40 ERA and he has three innings of post season work against the Rays allowing just one hit. I had to take a good look at this one the A's are so strong at home 21-9 70% but Las Vegas deems the Pale Hose the side. Take WHITE SOX!
