The New York Yankees are hosting the Texas Rangers tonight in Major League Baseball action. The game is scheduled for a 7:05 p.m. start time and the MLB Odds for the game have the Rangers listed as a small favorite on the road to pick up the win.

The Yankees enter tonight eight games back in the American League East behind division-leading Baltimore. New York has dropped two straight, but the Yankees have been a decent team at home this season (21-17) and will be looking to reach the .500 mark for the season with a win in this one.

C.C. Sabathia gets the ball for New York, he’s 5-4 with a 2.71 ERA on the season, he’s been pitching well though he will look to rebound from a bad start against Colorado last time out.

In his career, Sabathia is 11-5 with a 4.97 ERA against Texas.

The Rangers will send Cole Hamels to the mound, he’s 8-1 with a 2.79 ERA on the season and he also has been pitching well, winning his last three starts while posting an 0.87 ERA over those starts. 

In his career against the Yankees, Hamels is 0-2 with a 4.50 ERA in three starts.

In a game where both lefties will look to continue to have success, Hamels will lead Texas to the win. The Rangers have the better lineup and they’ve won three straight overall while posting an 8-2 mark the last 10 games.
