Odds from Betonline.ag
The Reds are putting Ashcraft on the mound and he is a good pitcher, but Ashcraft is facing a powerful offense in the Yankees. That offense will end up cranking the ball up against the Reds pitching and will definitely crush the Reds hopes of winning. Look for the Yankees to almost push the over on their own in this game as the Reds are unable to stop the Yankees offense. At the same time, the Yankees are going to handily win this game as the Reds struggle and are able to score only a run or two.
