The Subway Series returns on Tuesday night as the Yankees will travel to Citi Field to play the Mets. This is the first meeting of the season between these cross-town rivals, and there will be a quality pitching matchup for the series opener. The Mets need every win they can get considering they're in a battle for first place in the NL East, and taking down the Yankees would be an impressive feat. You can catch the first pitch starting at 7:10 pm ET on TBS.
We have come up with a 2-leg parlay, which would pay out at nearly 4/1 odds with FanDuel Sportsbook. Let’s take a look at each of the legs.
Aaron Judge to record 2+ bases (-115)
If the Orioles never see Aaron Judge again, it would be too soon. The AL MVP frontrunner was making the Baltimore pitching look like batting practice as he went 2-for-4 with 8 total bases on Friday, 4-for-5 with 6 total bases on Saturday, and 2-for-4 with 5 total bases on Sunday. The Yankees had an off day on Monday which gave Judge an extra day of rest which is crucial down the stretch of the season. The slugger will be well rested on Tuesday night, and he gets the opportunity to hit against a pitcher he's had great success against. In just 7 at-bats against Taijuan Walker, Judge has 2 hits which are both home runs.
I wouldn't be surprised if he took a trip around the bases on Tuesday night, especially since he's hit 4 home runs since the second half of the season started last Thursday. Judge has been an extra-base hit machine all season, so I think he can record at least 2 bases on Tuesday.
