Parlay: Oakland Athletics VS New York Yankees 2025-06-29

Best Same-Game Parlay: Yankees -1.5 Run Spread & Under 10 Total Runs
Odds: +296 (3.96 implied) at BetMGM

Why This Works:
1. Yankees -1.5 Run Spread (-110):
- The Yankees are a strong favorite (1.45-1.5 moneyline) with a 47-34 record. Marcus Stroman (4.05 ERA) faces a struggling Athletics offense (33-51), which has scored 1.5 runs per game over their last 10.
- The Athletics’ lineup, led by Tony Wilson (.341 BA), has struggled against right-handed starters like Stroman, hitting just .210 in his career.

Under 10 Total Runs (-110):
- The Yankees’ pitching staff (3.88 team ERA) and Stroman’s 3.85 ERA clash with the Athletics’ offense, which ranks 29th in MLB in runs per game (3.1).
- The Yankees’ recent 7-0 shutout of Oakland and their 1.5 HRs per game (2nd in MLB) suggest a low-scoring contest. The Under is 10/10 in their last 20 games.

Key Context:
- The Yankees are 23-11 in games they’re favored by +1.5 runs or more this season.
- The Athletics have been shut out six times this year, including their last game.

Avoid Over/Under 10.5:
- While some books offer 10.5 (e.g., Fanatics, DraftKings), the Under at 10 runs is more secure given the Yankees’ pitching dominance and Oakland’s offensive struggles.

Bookmaker: BetMGM (best combined odds for this parlay).

Total Payout: A $100 bet would return $296 if both legs win.

Smart Money Tip: This parlay leverages the Yankees’ dominance and the Athletics’ offensive woes. If you’re risk-averse, consider a 2-leg parlay instead of a 3-leg (e.g., Yankees moneyline + Under 10).
