Toronto comes into this game off back to back losses. Toronto has scored 3 or fewer runs in 5 straight games. Toronto is starting Chris Bassitt in this game. Bassitt has allowed 2 or fewer runs in 4 of his last 5 starts and has a 6-2 record at home in 11 home starts with a 2.56 ERA.

Chicago is starting their ace in Justin Steele who is 13-3 on the season with a 2.68 ERA. Steele is 7-1 in his last 8 starts and has allowed 2 or fewer earned runs in 6 of those 9 starts and 3 or fewer earned runs in all 9 starts. Steele has a 2.23 ERA in day games this season.

Toronto is just not having much success at the plate recently but have been getting great pitching. I like a pitchers duel in this game with a low final score.

Pick: Under 8.5
