Mike Mussina (R) vs Rich Harden (R)
The Yankees hope they get more respect from the Athletics Tuesday than they do from Vegas oddsmakers, who peg them as 125 pups.
The Yankees start Mike Mussina, 0-0, 0 ERA. His last trip was a loss, a 5-3 team loss against the Angels, when he threw 2 2/3 innings, allowing 5 runs on 6 hits. The righty last threw against the Athletics on May 13, 2005 coming away with a win. He allowed 6 hits in 7 innings, giving up 2 in that one.
Sporting a 1-0 overall record and a 0-0 mark within the division, the Yankees aim to knock the Athletics (0-0 In the division) for a loss.
New York comes in as a small road dog, as the line opened at 125 in favor of the hosts. Athletics, who are 0-1 this season, face the Yankees and their 1-0 slate. The OVER/UNDER has been set at 8.
Joe Torre's troops went to Oakland last game and came away with a 15-2 win, a game that went over 8. Oddsmakers had them as 110 favorites in that one.
Oakland pitchers are charitable with the baserunners, giving up more hits per game than just about every team in the league. The Yankees hitters could see good pitches to hit today.
Some trends to consider:
New York is 2-4-0 OU in its last 6 games
New York is 12-6-0 OU in its last 18 away
New York is 5-1-0 SU in its last 6 games after scoring more than 9 runs
New York is 6-1-0 OU in its last 7 games against Oakland
Oakland is 7-1-0 OU in its last 8 games at home against New York
Oakland is 6-1-0 OU in its last 7 games against New York
Oakland is 2-6-1 OU in its last 9 games
