MLB: Sunday's play

Play: L.A. Angels +121 (Wilson vs. action)

Time: 7:30 p.m. ET

Reasoning: I expect both Mike Trout and Josh Hamilton to get off the schneid Sunday evening. They will face "Big Game" James Shields, he of the 2-4 record and 5.26 ERA in seven postseason starts. On Tuesday Shields allowed four runs in five-plus innings against Oakland. He has a 5.09 ERA in his last three outings. C.J. Wilson has been much better of late, posting a 3.29 ERA in his last three turns. In the regular season the Angels were better on the road (46-35) than Kansas City was at home (42-39).  Los Angeles averages nearly five runs per game away from home and its bullpen's road ERA is a half-run better than the Royals relievers are at home. At home Kansas City scores a half-run less per game vs. LH.



Record: 194-144-8 (57.4%)
Bankroll: +122.54%
