Oakland has been trending to over 7 runs consistently at home lately and with Cole Irvin and Jose Suarez pitching to open the series, it's likely that both pitchers get hit and bring us over the total again. Cole Irvin has a 3.04 ERA, 1.06 WHIP, and 78 strikeouts in 115 Innings played; while having a 6-8 record as the starter and 4-2 in his home splits. Angels' Jose Suarez has a 4.55 ERA, 1.48 WHIP, and 53 strikeouts in 55 innings pitched; while being 3-4 in starts this season and 1-2 in his away splits. Both teams are no lower than middle of the pack in batting against Lefties (Oakland being #8, Angels #14 in the MLB) and Oakland/Angels are bottom of the league in strikeouts (Home/Away). Because Oakland beat the Angels in the last series away from home, I cant comfortably pick a winner of the two and just hope to see runs scored off these mediocre pitching teams.

Official Play: Over 7 Runs
