Shane’s Free Pick

Saturday night was high scoring, but this game is going to be different. Reid Detmers looked good in the last game and the Royals are going to get back to their ways of not hitting. Lyles sits with an ERA of 3.91 and he’s going to lockdown the Angels bats here. This game will finish with six runs or less. Back the under to cash.
