About Last Night
Braves, Rangers bring out the bats
There is a reason why Atlanta and Texas are World Series contenders in their respective leagues and they showed it again on Monday. The Braves bashed the Yankees 11-3, while the Rangers humiliated the Angels 12-0. The wildest game of the night saw Kansas City blow a 5-0 lead going into to eighth inning and then come back from 6-5 down in the bottom of the ninth to beat Seattle 7-6.
Manchester United blanks Wolves
In the only English Premier League game of the day, Manchester United started their season by scraping past Wolves 1-0. We cashed the Red Devils winning to nil at +111 odds.
