1 unit on Cleveland -128 (moneyline) (risk 1 to return 1.78)
Result:
LOSS

Cleveland has one of the best offenses in the game, fifth in scoring and slugging, and they are in Texas, a home run happy park. The first-place Indians erupted for 17 hits in a 12-1 triumph on Friday. Starter Carlos Carrasco (9-6, 3.12 ERA) has as many strikeouts as innings pitched and comes off a 1-0 win at Oakland, allowing four hits in eight innings with no walks while fanning nine. He paired 18 swinging strikes with seven ground balls to handcuff the Athletics lineup. Carrasco is 6-3 on the road with a 1.74 ERA and the last four years he is 20-12 away from home. The Indians are also 19-7 in his last 26 road starts, plus 9-3 against the AL West. Texas continues to be in first place, but they've actually been outscored this season by three runs (Cleveland is at +96). Starter A.J. Griffin has allowed 18 hits, five homers and nine runs his last two starts (12+ innings). He has a 4.79 ERA at home this season and the Indians are 16-7 in the last 23 meetings. Back Cleveland.
