The Angle(s): The Los Angeles Angels are 8-2 to the under in their last 10 games, while the Texas Rangers arrive on an eye-popping 10-0 run to the under. The Angels are coming off an explosive 18-3 victory over Houston, but history repeatedly shows that explosive offensive outputs from volatile offenses often lead to immediate letdowns the following game.
The Angels hand the ball to left-hander Reid Detmers (4-8, 3.78 ERA), who has been a bankable under engine all season. Los Angeles has seen the total stay under in eight of Detmers’ last nine starts. Texas counters with southpaw MacKenzie Gore (7-9, 4.45 ERA), whose starts have yielded a 1-3 over/under record across his last four outings. Furthermore, both pitchers possess a strong track record against today’s opposition; Detmers has held active Texas batters to a .194 average over 94 at-bats, while Gore has suppressed Halos hitters to a .234 average across 77 at-bats.
The Bet: Under 7½ -115 (3%).
