Athletics -1½ +185 over Miami

9:40 PM EST. Like Coors Field, this venue has become known for high-scoring games, crooked numbers, and big innings. Bullpens can unravel quickly, and even quality starting pitching doesn't always hold up in this environment. The ballpark itself often dictates the outcome more than the names on the mound.

The Athletics have been a much tougher team to beat at home than their overall record might suggest. They're capable of putting together explosive innings in Sacramento, and when they win here, they frequently do so by multiple runs. That's why we're much more interested in the reverse run line than laying a short price on the moneyline. At plus money, the value is difficult to ignore.

Miami has been playing better baseball recently, but this is still a difficult place for any visiting pitching staff. With the Athletics getting +185 to win by two or more runs in one of baseball's highest-scoring environments, we'll continue to ride the reverse run line angle in Sacramento.
