Analysis: The NY Yankees come in slumping a bit as they have won just 2 of their last 5 games. THey are 47-46 on the year and 4 games behind the Baltimore Orioles in the AL East. The Yankees have been average on offense, as they come in ranked 17th in scoring (4.02 rpg), 16th in hitting (.252) and 15th in the league in homers (80). The Pitching for the Yankees has not been below average, as they are 21st in the league in ERA (3.94) and 112th in WHIP (1.27). Getting the ball for New York tonight will be Chase Whitley, who is 4-2 with a 4.94 ERA on the year overall, while on the road he is 3-1 with a 4.86 ERA.
The Baltimore Orioles have won 9 of their last 12 games and have taken control of the AL East, as they now have a 3 game lead over the floundering Toronto Blue Jays. The Baltimore offense has been solid this year, ranking 8th in scoring (4.32 rpg), 4th in hitting (.265) and 2nd in homers (113).

Getting the ball for Baltimore tonight will be Kevin Gausman, who is 3-2 with a 3.51 ERA on the year overall, while at home he has gone 2-2 with a 4.91 ERA.
Pick: I will look to the Under in this one. Sunday night baseball games tend to be low scoring and that's what im expecting. Chase Whitley has struggled of late, but the Orioles have averaged just 3.54 rpg at home this year, including just 2.3 rpg in the first 4 games of this homestand. The Yanks have averaged just 3.2 rpg in their last 5 games and Gausman has pitched well of late with a 3.31 ERA in his last 3 starts. 6 runs at most here.
