All-Star Game Pick
The 2010 MLB All-Star Game takes place Tuesday night and home-field advantage in the World Series is up for grabs in the contest.
The American League comes into the game as the favorite with a betting line of -121 according to oddsmakers at Sports Interaction. The N.L. has a line of +111 and the over/under for runs in the game is set at 8.5.
The 2010 All-Star Game takes place Tuesday night at 8PM ET from Angel Stadium in
The American League has won the last seven contests and is 12-0-1 in the last 13 games. The last National League win came in 1996. In games held in
The key for the N.L. is in its pitching staff as it features Roy Halladay, Ubaldo Jiminez, Tim Lincecum, and Josh Johnson. While the N.L. doesn’t have the hitting to match the A.L., it may not need a lot of runs to win this game.
The A.L. roster is featured by a number of solid hitters including Alex Rodriguez, Miguel Cabrera, Dustin Pedroia, Joe Mauer, and Vladimir Guerrero. Still with solid pitching, the A.L. doesn’t have the depth on the mound that the N.L. has.
We have seen pitching dominate baseball this year as two perfect games and many near no-hitters have taken place. With pitching being such a big factor, we feel the National League will breakthrough this year and finally win. Look for the N.L. to edge the A.L. with the under hitting.
Our 2010 MLB All-Star Game Pick is NATIONAL LEAGUE +111 and UNDER 8.5
