    every game but one has been decided by 1 run and the Yankees best players look absolutely lost at the plate. Cano, Granderson and A Rod are just launching out of their shoes swinging at anything no matter where it is, even 10 feet out of the strike zone.

    but in the same sense Baltimore is not hitting either. this is a complete coin toss. is it just cause its CC that its -200?? He can easily lose 1-0 or 2-0.

    that being said i don't have the guts to back either team.

      Ok ready here goes. " Baseball is all about the pitching". Repeat, "Baseball is all about the pitching"

      That's why it is 2-1. Geez

                Yet the series is tied & the last 2 games going to extra's-
                CC is the guy who could go 9 innings & that is exactly why they are so heavily favoured--Plus the career numbers the yankees hitters have vs Hammel BA 305 OBP 354 SLG 523 it's more likely the yankees bats will breakout than the O's.

                  I say you can't keep the Yankee offense in check too long, especially at home. I got -1.5 @ +105.

                            yup...O's RL is a sucker bet because ppl believe this game will be just like the last 2.

                            I think Yankees line-up wakes up today and puts up atleast 3-4

                              If bradleysnyder think o's +1.5 is the worst bet, O's win outright. Bradley is always on fade.

                                Same could be said about the O's hitters...Chris Davis...Adam Jones...and Reynolds are swinging with their eyes closed. Never see so many people just swing and swing and swing at pitches in the dirt or a foot off the plate. These games have been painful to watch. Not like Verlander has been on the hill for every inning.

                                  uh yeah. and the O's pitching has been shutting down the yankees line up. without Ibanez this series is over already. hence this being a coin flip and crazy at 2-1 odds.

                                    Hammel isn't exactly a push over.

                                    only good thing Yanks have in their favor is that O's burned out O'day last night. but now they can lean on Strop who is just as nasty.

                                      CC is the Yankess ace. Hammel is barely over .500. Id say hes the weakest starter Orioles have in their postseason rotation. Hes also pitched in three games in three months (Due to injury, I know).
