Tuesday's marquee match-up in Major League Baseball features division rivals who will clash for the first time this year as the Cleveland Indians visit the Los Angeles Angels in a battle of last season's division winners. BetOnline.com has the Los Angeles Angels -114 odds favorites against the Cleveland Indians +104 with the over/under set at 8.5 runs.
The Indians won three of their first six this year, and will send Jake Westbrook (0-1, 2.45) to the hill in the second of this three-game set. Westbrook pitched well in a 2-1 loss to Chicago, allowing two runs on six hits over 7 1/3 innings.
 This was a promising beginning for Westbrook, who failed to reach double figures in victories for the first time in four seasons. Westbrook was 0-1 in two starts against the Angels last year with an ERA of 2.63. The Angels will put their faith in Ervin Santana (1-0, 3.00), who gave up a pair of runs on four hits in six innings of work in a 5-4 win at Minnesota. However, Santana was terrible against the Indians last year, going 0-3 in three starts with an ERA of 5.82.
These two have split their last ten meetings, with the Indians taking two of three in Los Angeles in their last series. But the Angels are generally solid at home, so take Los Angeles in this encounter. Get your Free MLB Pick in Now!
