MLB: Sunday's Oak/Cle

Play: Cleveland +1.5 -150 (Chavez vs. Masterson)

Time: 1:05 p.m. ET

Reasoning: The Indians would be 25-19 if they were given 1.5 runs per game and the A's would be 20-23 if they gave 1.5 rpg. Oakland starter Jesse Chavez is a converted reliever. He's pitched remarkably well this season given that fact, but he hasn't fared well against Cleveland: 0-1 with an 8.49 ERA in 10 career appearances. The Indians are hitting 46 points higher and are scoring 1.24 more rpg vs. RH. Cleveland starter Justin Masterson has it together now, as opponents are hitting just .203 against him in May. In his last three starts Masterson has a 3.32 ERA and a 1.16 WHIP.

Record: 81-48-5 (62.8%)
