INDIAN COWBOY'S PLAY OF THE DAY: BOSTON REDSOX vs NY YANKEES
Play: 4 Unit Play. Take Under 9.5 New York Yankees @ Boston Redsox
(Thursday @ 7:10pm est). (POD)
Comments: INDIAN COWBOY'S PLAY OF THE DAY: You know I love pitchers
and their bounce-backs. It is one of my favorite betting principles
and we have two good ones today. CC goes on the mound for the Yankees
and he has come on strong for them after a shaky start early on. He
gave up 4 runs in 8 innings in his last start (earned runs that is)
and the Yankees lost 7-9 in Tampa Bay. Prior to that CC had pitched in
5 straight quality starts and he has brought his era down to 3.56. I
can't begin to tell you how many times I have taken Penny on the
bounce-back for the Under (sure I can, 4 to be exact I think).
Amazingly, despite a 5.85era, he is 5-2 for the Sox this year and part
of the reason is his sound ability to "bounce-back". He gave up 5 runs
to Tejas at home in Fenway when the Rangers won 1-5 and I expect a
much better start out of him today. Heck, he hadn't lost a start since
March 3rd prior to that (5 straight starts without a "L"). Look for
both pitchers to be on the bounce-back today as this baby likely dips
under. The Under is 4-0 when the Yankees are favored by this margin on
the road and the Under is 4-0 of late for the Redsox when they are
Underdogs.
INDIAN COWBOY'S PLAY OF THE DAY: LA LAKERS vs ORLANDO MAGIC
Play: 4 Unit Play. Take Over 201 between the LA Lakers @ Orlando Magic

Comments: INDIAN COWBOY'S PLAY OF THE DAY: 4 Unit Play. Take Over 201
between the LA Lakers @ Orlando Magic (Thursday @ 9pm est). If you are
looking for a side in this contest, I like the Magic. But, I can't
bring myself to take Orlando as they barely won a must win Game 3 at
home. Heck, if Kobe makes his free throws for the most part in this
game and fails to lose the handle in their last possession, this game
could have easily gone to LA. Now, LA is on a bounce-back as well. If
anything I wouldn't be surprised to see this game go either way. If LA
wins game 4, sure, I lean on the Magic in an elimination in game 5 as
LA is likely to win as they go back home in Game 6. But, why not take
"both teams" for this game. The Magic love an up-tempo style of game
at home where they are more comfortable shooting the ball. This
explains why Game 3 soared over. Plus, why not take the Lakers to be
an "active dog" as well. Hence, let’s take both teams as this total is
set at 201 where one can easily see both teams pushing an envelope in
what should be an extremely tight game. The Over is 5-1 for the Lakers
as a road dog which is something that I have usually taken on the
highway when they are dogs and the Over is 6-0 between these two teams
in Orlando.
