WHITE SOX/INDIANS Under 8.5 -120 - It is always a special occasion when you pitch vs. the team that traded you, and this is Colon?s first start ever against the Indians. Despite taking the loss to a red-hot Royals team in his first start for the White Sox, Colon pitched well enough to win, allowing only 4 hits in 6 innings. He will be facing a Cleveland team that is struggling offensively, with a disgusting team batting average of .185, including .153 vs. right-handers! Rodriguez also impressed in his first Major League start, getting the win over Baltimore while allowing just 1 run and 4 hits in 7 innings. He is the type of pitcher that may have success his first time through the league, and the White Sox haven?t exactly been scorching right-handed pitching, hitting .252 vs. righties as opposed to a whopping .326 vs. lefties. I think that Rodriguez will match Colon pitch-for-pitch, thus keeping this game safely Under this total.
