Two incredibly similar sides meet here in what should be a highly competitive matchup. If anything, we have a slight edge in pitching; as they do on offence along with defence. Their lineup lacks any true masher – in fact, the top HR total on either side this season was Felipe Alou’s 20 – but also has no slot that gives you a break—they are solid top to bottom. I would be taking the under on run totals throughout, that’s for sure.
The series will come down to who does the little things best, especially at the key moment in each game.
This one has the potential to be a classic.
