Braves - Cubs under 8.5
We have probably the two teams best pitchers facing each other tonight based on last year's performances. Randy Wells was superb against the Braves last year almost no hitting them the first time he faced them and he has been very good in spring training. Tommy Hanson never faced the Cubs and was also very good in spring training. The weather will be about in the 50's during the game which is about 30 degrees cooler than the first two games with a north wind which will help the balls not carry over.
Whitesox - Indians under 8.5
This game may not be played but it case it does will be in the mid 30's with possible snow flurries and a north wind which will make it unconfortable for the players at the plate. Masterson was superb in his last start at Chicago last year shutting out the Sox with 12K. I saw Floyd on his last exibition game last Friday vs the Braves and he looked pretty good. First two games ended under and I don't see how this game can have many runs either.
Record is 2-1 this year.
