We are going with the victory of the Yankees for the following reasons: -The Jays have lost 3 of their last 4 home games, including yesterday's game between the two that the Yankees won 6-5. -We bow to Yankees starting phenom Gerrit Coles who is an out of this world on the mound.

• Cole has an all-time positive record of 108 wins and 52 losses with a 3.14 ERA. This season he has a positive record of 7 wins and 3 losses with an ERA of 2.31. Excellent numbers for a starter.
• On the other hand, Stripling, who will start for the Jays, has a losing record of 25 wins and 30 losses, with an ERA of 3.89. This season he has a losing record of 2 wins and 3 losses with an ERA of 4.91. Many runs allowed per game for a starter.
• The Yankees have a batting average of .303 VS Stripling (they hit very very well), while the Jays have a batting average of .199 VS Cole (very very low).

The Stake is 1 because the Jays regardless of Cole throwing for the Yankees are great hitters and we always give an extra to the team that plays at home and in this case it is the Jays.
