Rangers vs Yankees MLB 2010 Odds – April 17, 2010: After a rather easy game 1 victory, the (7-3) New York Yankees [-180 ML] will try and clinch the series over the (5-5) Texas Rangers [+160 ML] with a win this afternoon at Yankee Stadium. The Rangers and the Yanks are scheduled to get things going today at 1 PM ET (12 PM CT) as Texas’ star RHP Scott Feldman (1-0, 2.57 ERA) takes on Yanks ace, RHP A.J. Burnett (1-0, 3.75 ERA).
After having the opener called at 5-1 in the 6th inning due to rain, the Rangers hope the additional rest will get
them a victory in the middle game of the series. Trying things at one game apiece, Texas will have just the right guy on the mound, as Feldman comes in with a 2-1 record against the Bronx Bombers with a respectable 3.72 ERA.
"New York and Boston provide a unique challenge on two fronts," Rangers GM Jon Daniels said. "First, the atmosphere is just different. I don't think it will affect our guys; they've all been there before. Second, and more important, their lineups are full of guys that are selective and make you work for outs. Boston and New York combine patience and power. That's ultimately what we want to become — a selective but dangerous club."
For the pinstripes, after flirting with baseball immortality, CC Sabathia didn’t miss a beat, as he was his dominant self in game one. At one point, Sabathia stringed together a series of six consecutive strikeouts against the Rangers. Not even the rain could cool the big fella down last night. "Basically, he picked up where he left off," captain Derek Jeter said. "When it's raining and the ball is always wet, he can strike out everybody he wants to."
Burnett, who’s coming off a strong outing against the Tampa Bay Rays, will try to do the same, as he comes in with a career-record of 3-3 and an ERA of 4.05 against Texas. The OVER/UNDER for this Rangers vs Yankees MLB 2010 Odds game is set at a combined total of 9½ runs scored.
