Ivan Nova and the Chicago White Sox face off against Jason Vargas and the Philadelphia Phillies tonight in what should be an exciting matchup.
Jason Vargas was just acquired by the Phillies from the Mets and has shown a high ERA during games played outside from New York, posting a 5.03 ERA during this span. On the other hand, Ivan Nova, has let in 5.12 runs every nine innings during away games and has a 5.89 ERA during night games.
Vargas allows 1.29 hits per inning during night games, while Nova is averaging 1.52 hits per inning in the same stance. Everything indicates we are going to watch a whole lot of runs tonight in Philadelphia.
I am taking the over 7.5 runs during the first seven innings of the match, as I feel both teams will take advantage of these pitchers and score rapidly.
Pick: Over 7.5 runs in the first seven innings @ 1.76
