New York took the first game of the series with an 11-7 victory, then shut-out the Indians 4-0 on Saturday before putting on a scoring display in Sunday’s 9-1 win as -185 baseball betting favorites. Derek Jeter creeped ever so closer to the 3,000-hit milestone with 2-RBI singles on Sunday and has only four games left at home if he is to make history at Yankees Stadium. The rest of the New York bench went for a season-high 18-hits including a 4 for 4 performance from shortstop Curtis Granderson while Brett Gardner went 3-4 with 3-runs. The Yankees look to be a safe wager again tonight in MLB predictions having gone 5-0 vs the Indians and 9-4 overall in their last 13-games.

While New York has seemed to find their groove as of late, Cleveland has lost their last 9 out of 10 games and will try not to be swept by the Yankees on ESPN Monday night baseball. The Indians fell 1-9 on Sunday as +155 underdogs despite pitcher Josh Tomlin holding New York’s lead to 1-0 heading into the bottom of the fifth. The defense fell apart shortly allowing five runs and eventually 3-more in the eighth inning to drop their fourth straight game. It will be up to Indians starting pitcher Carrasco to try and hold back the bats of the Yankees as this will be the first time the two have met but does the righthander does boast a 3-0 record on the road and 3.48-ERA on the road.
