Oakland Athletics vs Seattle Mariners
How Many Home Runs Will Be Hit in the Game?
In the weekend series between two division rivals, the Athletics will have Paul Blackburn on the mound, while the Mariners will have rookie starter George Kirby.
Blackburn is averaging 0.8 home runs allowed per nine innings this season, while Kirby has had trouble keeping the ball in the park, averaging 2.0 HR/9 in 10 starts.
However, the Athletics are the second-worst team in home runs connected with 54 and Seattle’s T-Mobile Park is the tenth-lowest ballpark in home runs per game average at 0.891.
Pick: 2.

What will happen first?
With no big punchers opening the game and in a stadium where the ball doesn’t fly much, we are left with few clear options to make a decision for this pick.
Do you want to know a revealing fact? Both the Mariners and Athletics are in the middle of the table in connected doubles with 125 and 124, respectively.
Pick: Double.
JefeBet App: Liga MX
America vs Atlas
Who Will Win the Game?
The start of the Liga MX Apertura tournament offers us a vibrant game between two teams favored to win the championship title.
While América will start at the Azteca Stadium, where it has not lost in its last seven matches, the current two-time champion, Atlas, will try to get off on the right foot against an opponent that is projected to be one of the most powerful to avoid a three-time championship.
Although there have been no draws in their last five matches, on the first matchday the teams usually try to adjust their game and in the case of these two teams the mutual respect they have for each other will make the result very tight.
Pick: Tie.
