Tip and bets
The hosts did not slow down at the end of the regular season and continue to defeat their opponents. The guests don't have a lot of motivation, and getting crushed with a score of 8:0 in the first game of the series was devastating for the Marlins. The first game made it clear that the Miami Marlins have practically no chance of challenging the leaders of the American League. The Marlins are tired and they don't want to fight. We predict that the Rays will get an easy win in the second game, too.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (-1.5) to Tampa Bay Rays.
