Seattle – Moyer –135 (3 Units)

Jamie Moyer takes the hill for Seattle as the Mariners try to improve their league best road record. Moyer is 10-4 on the season and is 5th in the American League with a 2.93 ERA. He has been a bad luck pitcher his last 2 starts as he has gone 15.1 innings with a 2.93 ERA and has suffered both losses. Seattle scored a total of 1 run in both of those games thus not giving Moyer a chance to bring home the win. In his 13 other starts, he has allowed more than 3 earned runs only twice. In the other 11 starts, the Mariners are a perfect 11-0 showing that run support has not been a problem throughout the season. He has been very effective on the road as he is 5-2 with a 3.20 ERA and has held the Angels in check this season. He is 2-1 in his 3 starts against Anaheim with a 0.82 ERA and a 0.86 WHIP. The Angels counter with Ramon Ortiz who is a perfect 4-0 in the month of June but still sports a 4.67 ERA and a 1.41 ratio. He is 1-2 with a 4.19 ERA against Seattle this season. The Mariners lead the Major Leagues with a .301 road batting average and a .373 on base percentage and they are 2nd with a .475 slugging percentage. The Angels are in the middle of the pack in the same categories at home and have had their troubles recently against lefties as they are hitting just .157 in their last 10 games.
