This pick box is guilty as charged.And now we are going to play Double Jeopardy on Saturday.The Phillies visit the Twins.Philly’s Jesús Luzardo has given up two runs and struck out 19 batters in his last 15 frames.

Twins rookie Connor Prielipp has allowed six runs in his last 10 ¹/₃.Play $100 on the Phillies.Game 2: The Red Sox are in Pittsburgh.

The Pirates’ Jared Jones has lost three in a row, allowing 14 runs in those 13 innings.Boston counters with Sonny Gray.

We had Sonny when he beat the White Sox, and we bet against Sonny when he lost to the Jays.Backing Gray again.

$50 on the Red Sox.Truth is, when the Guardians took a 3-0 lead, I switched to the Savannah Bananas/Loco Coconuts game.But Xander Bogaerts and Fernando Tatis Jr.homered, and the Padres won 7-5.
