• Run line: Cleveland +1.5 (-170)
• Over/Under: 8.5 runs

Pitching Matchup:

• White Sox: Lucas Giolito (5-5, 5.05 ERA)
• Guardians: Aaron Civale (2-5, 6.28 ERA)

Key Stats:

• White Sox are 23-20 on the road this season
• Guardians lead White Sox by 1.5 games in AL Central
• Tim Anderson hitting .412 with 3 HR vs Civale
• Steven Kwan batting .285 with 23 RBI this season
• Jose Ramirez hitting .286 against Giolito

Analysis: The Guardians have an opportunity to win the series, especially given Giolito's inconsistent 2023 performance. However, Civale has also been unreliable, though he showed promise in his last start allowing just one run in seven innings. The game may come down to offensive production if neither starter can deliver a quality outing, making the over 8.5 runs an intriguing betting option.
