Scouting report
Sprinkle's read:Guardians Under 3.5 team total★★★
AL Championship Series Game 4, tied 2-2.
A quiet lineup against a full number
Guardians are scoring 3.0 a game over their last five, and tonight's number asks for more than that.
The number
Guardians would need to lift their recent output to clear 3.5.
The decider
Nick Martinez has been ordinary for Rays. Martinez carries a 3.80 ERA over his last five starts.
The context
The bullpens have been about even over the last month, so the late innings are not where this is decided.
Situational
Both teams had a day off, lineups are posted and nobody of note is missing; nothing here is worth adjusting for.
What breaks this
Rays allow 3.8 a game, so the chances will be there.
