Dan Behringer, Review-Journal, 7-13-1 (overall record)

Today’s best bet: Texas Rangers-NEW YORK YANKEES (Over 9½)

The Rangers will start Tommie Hunter (13-5) and the Yankees counter with A.J. Burnett (10-15). When these pitchers met on Sept. 11, the teams combined for 13 runs. A similar result is likely in Game 4, even in a postseason atmosphere . Burnett’s ERA ballooned to 7.94 in his past three starts, and Hunter has a career 6.75 ERA against the Yankees. New York has gone over in six of eight October games.
