1 unit on Los Angeles +111 (moneyline) (risk 1 to return 2.11)
Result:
WIN

A key AL West clash of rivals on national TV. Texas is stumbling, losing four in a row, and the Rangers are 4-11 against a starter with a WHIP less than 1.15. That's what they face here with Matt Shoemaker (4-1, 3.83 ERA), with 45 strikeouts and only nine walks in 42 innings. He has a 3.05 ERA at home, and the Angels are 16-5 in their last 21 home games vs. a team with a losing road record. Los Angeles has a powerhouse offense, fourth in baseball in runs scored and fifth in slugging. And the Angels are 35-16 against a team with a losing record. The Texas offense has taken a step back from last year, and ace Yu Darvish pitches his second straight game on the West Coast. The last one was awful, getting pounded by Oakland in a 10-6 loss while allowing eight hits and five walks in five innings. The Angels are 20-8 in their last 28 home games, so take the home dog. Play on the Los Angeles Angels.
