00:00All right, the next game we have is Philly and Toronto north of the border.

00:05The Jays are coming off a four-game sweep,

00:08and they've moved into second place in the AL East.

00:12They're a home dog to the Phillies.

00:14Philly's minus about 34, Toronto plus 114.

00:17Dirty Sanchez going for Philly, Francis for Toronto north of the border.

00:22He's been awful, 2-6 with a 5 ERA.

00:25Who do you like here, Phils or Jays?

00:30And call me crazy.

00:32By the way, Harper is playing in this game.

00:34There was a question mark whether or not that elbow, if he was going to play,

00:38he is in the starting lineup here tonight against Francis and Toronto.

00:43Listen, Toronto's bats have quietly exploded all of a sudden at home,

00:49scoring a ton of runs over the last couple of weeks.

00:51They're crushing left-handed pitching.

00:53I think Philadelphia will be able to score some runs as well.

00:57I think it's an over 8.5 is the total, Scott.

01:00I think that's way too low.

01:03I like the over, and I like the Jays again.

01:06They have been winning.

01:07They have been hitting home runs.

01:10They've been scoring runs.

01:12And Philly just got swept by the Brewers in Philadelphia, no less.

01:17Give me Toronto plus 114.

01:20All right, Cleveland and the Yankees in the Bronx.

01:23Byby against Rodon.

01:24I actually bet this one today.

01:26I'm going to throw it out there right now.

01:27I bet it on the run line with Rodon.

01:30He's been great at home.

01:33Byby's been getting beat up.

01:35His last, like, four starts, he's been awful.

01:38His ERA's been huge.

01:40Tuesday pitch, he lost.

01:43He just hasn't been doing well.

01:45And Rodon has been fantastic.

01:47Not only that, the Yankees have been incredible in the Bronx.

01:50So, I laid the run and a half at plus 109.

01:53I agree with you.

01:54I even took him in the first five as well, Scotty.

01:57I laid a half a run with the Yankees.

01:59You're not hitting Rodon.

02:00The Guardians don't hit for power.

02:03You're not going to be able to go toe-to-toe with this Yankees lineup when you can't hit home runs.

02:07So, yeah, I like that.

02:09Yankees first five as well as the full-game run line.

02:11So, Boston has Scott Baio going tonight, the former child star, against Kikuchi.

02:19Kikuchi, whose ERA is great.

02:22Too bad they don't ever score runs for him.

02:23Every time he pitches, they do nothing.

02:26I'm on Boston tonight at Fenway after they got beat last night.

02:31Give me the over.

02:33I mean, these two lineups, these two bullpens have shown the ability to be able to put runs.

02:38It's going to be a pretty nice night, I believe, in Boston tonight.

02:42So, I wouldn't be shocked to get a double-digit final score here.
