Vegas Play of the Day: Cleveland at Oakland

We’re entering the third season of the annual South Point-lined Play of the Day competition, effective July 1.

Starting bankrolls have reset to $10,000, with the maximum bet being to win $1,000 and the minimum wager $300. Ray Brewer won the 2015-2016 season, after Taylor Bern prevailed in 2014-2015.

Cleveland Indians at Oakland Athletics over-7.5 runs at minus-105: $420 to win $400

The Athletics have gone under in six straight games and 12 out of 15 while Cleveland has cashed on under bets in six out of its last eight road games. Thanks to a little discount in the price I’m betting on those runs to stop tonight in Oakland.

Cleveland starter Carlos Carrasco has allowed 4 1Ž2 earned runs per start in August, while Oakland rookie Andrew Triggs is making his fifth start of the season in search of his first win. The Athletics’ offense has been abysmal but between these two starters I’m confident the offenses can find at least eight runs.

Current Standings: Keefer (8-5, $10,840), Bern (4-6, $9,570), Brewer (7-8, $9,365)
