[sc:MLB240banner ]Jered Weaver (4-4, 4.08 ERA) steps on the mound later tonight looking to help the Angels prevent a three-game skid. Weaver is coming off a sensational month of May, wherein he went 4-1 with an ERA of 2.38 in six starts. The Yankees, meanwhile, will counter Weaver with Nathan Eovaldi (4-1, 4.40 ERA). Eovaldi hasn’t really pitched well thus far this season, but managed to avoid some losses because of the Yankees’ fantastic offense. The Yankees are fifth in the majors in runs (244), third in homers(67), and fourth in runs driven (233). The under is 3-0 in the Angels’ last three road starts, while the over is 5-2 in the Yankees’ last seven games overall.

New York (-115) wins, 6.4.
