New York's offense is taking a hit, but their pitching staff is certainly throwing well. They are off back-to-back shutouts of 4-0 and 1-0. The UNDER is 24-10-1 in the Yankees' last 35 games as a favorite, as well as 35-17 UNDER the total in interleague games. New York righty David Phelps has good stuff with 20 strikeouts in 22 innings, and he faces a punchless Pittsburgh team ranked #21 in runs and slugging. The Pirates are 13-41 in their last 54 interleague road games vs. a right-handed starter. The UNDER is also 6-1-2 in the Pirates' last nine road games. Starter Edinson Volquez is throwing strikes this season, a big plus, but is still 1-3. The Pirates are 2-7 in the last nine meetings with the Bronx Bombers, as well as 0-6 in the last six meetings in New York. 2 Plays. Take the Yankees and go with the UNDER in this one.
