Trends: When two left-handed pitchers meet in Interleague play. Over the past three years these games have gone over the total 26 times and under the total 41 times. While last year the method was just 10-9, it's a trend that I'd expect to continue being profitable.
For starters, it makes sense. Left-handed pitchers are generally tougher to hit against, as there are so many left-handed hitters in the game today. Batting against a pitcher who you seldom see is also considered difficult. When combined, it should make for a lower-scoring game.
Now, if we were to eliminate games with a total of 8.5 or lower, our number of plays would naturally decrease, but our winning percentage would increase, as there have been 28 overs and 15 unders. And for 2009, instead of being 10-9 we would have been 8-4.
When Interleague play rolls around for 2010 look for those games where two southpaws are facing off. If the total is 9 or higher, you likely have a pretty good under bet.
