MLB Preview
Arizona Diamondbacks (37-27) at New York Yankees (30-31)

Tuesday, 7:05 pm Eastern
SBG Global Opening Line: Yankees -185, Total 8.5 Under (-115)

The best pitching matchup on Tuesday night takes place in Yankee Stadium as the red-hot New York Yankees host Brandon Webb and the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Yankees are looking to get back to .500 tonight but they have to beat one of the best pitchers in the game in Brandon Webb to do it. New York has won a season-high six in a row. They haven’t won seven straight since 2005. SBG Global reports that early betting has the public taking the Yankees at home.

"Looseness. These guys are having fun with each other," Yankees manager Joe Torre said.

"Joe sat us all down and talked to us very firmly," Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez said. "I think our mood came, and then the winning came after."

The Yankees are batting .336 during the winning streak to up their season average to .281, fourth-best in the majors. Right fielder Bobby Abreu has broken out of a slump to go 19-for-38 in the last 10 games to raise his average from .228 to .272. "I'm swinging at better pitches right now," Abreu said. "I'm more consistent right now. I always stay positive."

The Yankees are -175 favorites with a total of 8.5 Under (-115) at SBG Global.

Rodriguez is batting .371 with five home runs and 18 RBIs in June after hitting just .235 with five homers in May. He homered twice and had five RBIs on Sunday, giving him 16 in the last six games.

The Yankees will be tested on Tuesday as they face last season's NL Cy Young Award winner. Webb is looking to win his fourth consecutive start.
He has allowed three runs - two earned - with 23 strikeouts in 22 innings over his last three outings. Webb will be making his first start at Yankee Stadium. He lost his only outing against the Yankees on June 15, 2004 at Arizona, giving up three runs and seven hits with five walks and five strikeouts in seven innings of a 4-2 defeat.

New York goes with Chien-Ming Wang who is also pitching well of late. Wang is coming off a five-hitter against the Chicago White Sox in a 5-1 road win Wednesday.
