MLB: Thursday's 2:10 p.m. ET play

Play: Tampa Bay +1.5 -175 (Karns vs. Ventura)

Time: 2:10 p.m. ET

Reasoning: The Rays would be 59-28 if they were given 1.5 rpg. Kansas City would be 39-43 if it gave 1.5 rpg. Nathan Karns has a 1.89 ERA in his last three starts. He has allowed two or fewer runs in each of his last five. Karns is 2-0 with a 2.31 ERA in six road starts, and the Royals have never seen him. Yordano Ventura will make his first start in a month because of a hand injury, and Kansas City is 0-4 in his last four starts. He enters with a 4.68 ERA. Tampa Bay has averaged 5.18 rpg over its last five vs. RH. John Jaso has returned from a wrist injury following three months on the shelf, and he is 6-of-8 since his return. Alex Gordon (groin) was carted off the field on Wednesday. 

Record: 394-309-17 (56.0%)
Bankroll: +234.60%
