Oakland -200, Chicago +160
Total: O 8.5 runs (-107), U 8.5 runs (-113)
I am playing the Athletics on the runline tonight as they host the White Sox. Chicago has lost a dreadful 20 games in a row now and are only a handful of games away from holding the MLB record. Might as well be famous for something in what looks to be the worst season in the franchises' history.
JP Sears (8-8, 4.53) isn't a bad starter for Oakland. In his last six starts, the Athletics have found victory in five of them and he's pitched well in all but one, when the team lost to Houston and he surrendered seven earned runs. Despite that, Oakland went on to win over San Francisco, the LA Angels (twice), Boston and Arizona where he gave up a combined six earned runs covering 29 1/3 innings pitched.
Chicago is 10-47 away from home so far this season. That's really bad, as you know. Oakland hasn't been great at home for what it's worth (27-29) but I like them to get the job done here tonight against the lowly White Sox.
