Tigers Try To Tackle Yankees – Winner Heads To The ALCS

First pitch for this playoff betting action is schedule for at 8:00 PM ET on Thursday, October 6, 2011, from Yankee Stadium, in the Bronx, New York.

It doesn’t get much more pressure packed than a deciding Game Five, in a crazy environment, with playoff lives on the line. That’s what we get as the Yankees battle the Tigers with the Texas Rangers, and the American League Championship Series, waiting in the wings.

In a re-match of the continuation of Game One, which was suspended due to rain, the Yankees start RHP Ivan Nova, while the Tigers will counter with RHP Doug Fister. Facing a star studded lineup of hitters, both these young pitchers are in the biggest game of their respective careers.

A world class event – requires a world class sportsbook to provide the game day odds. Being as such, we head to the Bodog.com online sports and entertainment wagering website for tonight’s baseball betting lines. We like the Bronx Bombers, along with a ton of runs, in this one!

When we called for the Tigers to top the Yankees, in this American League Divisional Series, we didn’t count on rain washing out Game One. Mother Nature took away the Tigers chance to start Justin Verlander in this crucial Game Five against the Yankees.

New York has outscored Detroit, by a 26-13 count, through the first four games of this series. We fully expect a bunch of runs in this one again tonight.

While we see “Super Nova” being comfortable in his own yard, the spotlight will be a little too bright for Tigers pitcher Doug Fister. New York also has a fresh, not to mention powerful, bullpen ready to go as Mariano Rivera and David Robertson have pitched a combined 1.1 innings so far in this series.

Yours truly has had an Old English D tattooed on his heart since birth. We are however going to put head over heart and back the Yankees, based on better pitching, in this one.
