Our Washington Nationals vs New York Yankees Prediction

New York comes into this contest holding a slim lead in the AL East. They have been one of the most solid teams on the road this season with a respectable 41-25 record. The Yankees are 3-1 in their last four matches, with their starting pitcher (Nestor Cortes) allowing just six hits and zero runs in 14 innings. However, Washington's Mitchell Parker is also in good form after giving up just a single run last time out. New York should be able to overcome the Nationals, although we don't expect a floodgate for runs. Our prediction for Washington Nationals vs New York Yankees: Under 9.5 runs.

Prediction:
