The New York Yankees will look to snap a five-game losing streak when they continue their three-game series against the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday night at Yankee Stadium. New York (48-36) has dropped eight of its last 10 games, slipping 1.5 games behind the Tampa Bay Rays in the AL East. Despite the recent struggles, the Yankees still own the American League’s top Wild Card spot by a wide margin entering Tuesday night.
Detroit (36-49) picked up a 7-3 victory in Monday’s series opener behind a dominant performance from Casey Mize, who tossed seven scoreless innings while allowing just one hit and striking out 10. The Tigers jumped on the Yankees early with five runs over the first two innings before cruising to the win, and will now look to lock up a series victory behind their ace.
Tonight’s matchup features one of the premier pitching duels in all of baseball. Detroit sends reigning AL Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal to the mound, while the Yankees counter with current AL Cy Young frontrunner Cam Schlittler. With two of the league’s best arms taking the hill, runs could come at a premium in the Bronx.

Hao-Yu Lee Over 0.5 Hits+Runs+RBI (-150): Hao-Yu Lee has completely turned his season around over the past month. He entered June batting just .192 with a .232 OBP and .527 OPS, but has slashed .360/.385/.540 with a .925 OPS since the calendar flipped. He’s gone over 0.5 Hits + Runs + RBI in 12 of his 15 games this month, including eight of his last 10. Lee kept rolling in Monday’s series opener, finishing 2-for-5 with two RBI in Detroit’s 7-3 win over New York. He’ll have a tough assignment tonight against Schlittler, but this prop only requires one combined hit, run or RBI. With the way Lee has been producing throughout June, this is a reasonable price to back another productive night.
