Probably my only play on Sunday. If it cashes, I may add one or two more.
BAL @ DET under 9.5
Two very underrated pitchers go head-to-head tomorrow, in a pitcher friendly ballpark in Detroit. Both pitchers will try to bounce back after some bad games last time out. This will be the first time that these two offenses see Marroth and Cabrera THIS year, while those two pitchers have seen these two offenses a lot ytd ( 7 times ) and that gives a huge edge to the pitchers. The home plate umpire Paul Schrieber is 5-2 to the 'under' this year, averaging only 7.71 runs per game. On Saturday, these two teams scored 21 runs on 28 hits, and I don't expect them to be that effective again on Sunday. Usually, after a late game slug-fest, the teams are flat in a day game that follows. When Detroit faces a righty, with Marroth on the mound, the under is 14-0 in last 14 games. When Baltimore faces lefties in two consecutive games, the under is 13-2-2 in last 17 gms. Last time they faced lefties in consecutive games was on april 20/21 when they scored 8 against Robertson and then got blanked against Wells the next day. Both bullpens are way too good not to bounce back after a very bad performance on Saturday.
Good luck
