@MrActionJunkie1 Plays for Tuesday (dropped on the podcast)

Play 1: NRFI - Baltimore Orioles at Washington Nationals (-115)

Corbin Burnes on the bump for Baltimore, 2.61 ERA, 0.92 WHIP on the season. Trevor Williams goes for the Nationals, 2.27 ERA, 1.17 WHIP this season. Neither pitcher has been perfect in the first inning this year, but I can't pass up numbers like that.

Play 2: NRFI - Houston Astros at New York Yankees (-115)

Both teams are mid-pack in 1^st inning runs scored. Luis Gil will toe the rubber for the Yankees, 6/6 in the 1^st inning allowing just 1 hit. 3.19 ERA, 1.19 WHIP on the season. That works for me. 41-year-old Justin Verlander goes for the Astros, 3/3 in the 1^st inning allowing only 2 hits. Yankee sticks are a career 22 for 135 against him, .163 BA. NRFI it is.

@KotaCapperKyle Plays: TBD
