We've reset the Play of the Day with fresh bankrolls and turned it into a yearly competition. Our three sports writers have re-started with $10,000 bankrolls to continue using on odds from the South Point.

Boston Red Sox at New York Yankees, Total Over 8 at minus-110: $440 to in $400: All signs point to this game flying over the run total. Red Sox starter Rick Porcello has an 8-14 record with a 5.04 earned run average. He’s 0-2 lifetime with a 6.29 run earned run average at Yankee Stadium. The Yankees counter with Michael Pineda, who is pitching more than 20 games for the first time since 2011 and is due for a letdown.

Both pitchers have been solid in their most recent outings, allowing oddsmakers to set the points total at eight — a favorable number for the American League and at Yankee Stadium.

Current Standings (as of July 1): Bern (10-12, $9,535), Brewer (14-13, $9,460), Keefer (8-21-1, $3,891)

Lifetime Records: 2014-15 Champion Bern (92-85-1), Keefer (92-104-3), Brewer (83-100-2)
