Result: Win
Play: Cleveland Indians
Rating: 10*
The Cleveland Indians defeated the Miami Marlins 6-2 on Friday. They've now scored 20 runs during their four-game winning streak, and I think they'll take care of business against the Miami Marlins Saturday night.
Jose Fernandez (13-7, 2.79 ERA) takes the ball for Miami. He's tossed 14 consecutive scoreless innings, but this is a pitcher who does his best job at home. Fernandez is 3-5 with a very mediocre 4.02 ERA in 11 road starts on the season. The Marlins are 1-5 in Fernandez's last six road starts and 4-17 in their last 21 interleague road games.
The Tribe turn to Trevor Bauer (9-6, 3.73) who tossed six scoreless innings of five-hit ball against Minnesota his last time out. He's 2-1 with a 2.45 ERA in his last five starts (4-1 team record). The Indians are 4-1 in Bauer's last five home starts. Bauer owns a 6-2 mark with a 2.50 ERA in 13 interleague starts and the Indians are 10-2 in their last 12 interleague games.
The Fish have scored just 16 runs in losing six of their past seven games. While Miami might have a slight pitching advantage, I'm happy to back the hotter (and better?) team at this price.
