- Analysis
- The Detroit Tigers vs. Chicago White Sox game at Rate Field on Monday night provides a strong argument for placing your money on the UNDER in the 1st 5 Innings.
Jack Flaherty heads to the mound for Detroit as he continues his recent streak of strong performances. During his previous outing he delivered six innings of shutout baseball against the Giants with only two hits allowed and eight strikeouts. Flaherty has maintained a 3.94 ERA while achieving a strong 72-to-19 strikeout-to-walk ratio throughout his 59.1 innings pitched this season. His performance has shown marked effectiveness in the initial stages of games by minimizing damage during the early frames.
Jonathan Cannon of the White Sox stands as Flaherty's adversary in this matchup. Cannon's 4.15 ERA may not be impressive but he reliably reaches the middle innings by averaging more than five innings per start. The pitcher has successfully maintained early control of the game by permitting few runs during multiple starts through his first five innings.
The starting patterns of both teams indicate that they generally begin their games with fewer runs scored. In the Tigers' most recent seven games, totals have gone under six times and the White Sox have experienced totals going under four times during their most recent six games.
The first five innings under bet looks to be the play based on both teams' pitching matchups and historical performance trends.
Jim's Play: 961. Tigers/White Sox UNDER 4.5, 1st 5 Innings
