The Atlanta Braves host the 95th edition of the MLB All-Star Game on Tuesday night at Truist Park, where baseball’s brightest stars from both leagues share the field.
The pregame narrative: Tarik Skubal and Paul Skenes get the start for the American League and National League, respectively, in a battle of reigning Cy Young winners. The NL snapped a nine-game ASG losing streak in 2023, but the AL got right back to its winning ways last year.
Check out my MLB All-Star Game best bet for the matchup on July 15.
MLB All-Star Game predictions
Best Bet: Under 7.5 runs (-138)
Instead of taking under 7 runs (+100) on the standard line, I’m adding a bit of juice for what I believe is some very important cushion.
- Dating back to 2008, the average ASG total is 6.7 runs.
- In the past 18 all-star games, only one has featured 10+ runs.
Last year’s 5-3 win for the AL just snuck past this total. But the under cashed in four straight games before that.
There’s a glut of elite players at the plate and on the mound, but top-tier pitching tends to win out.
Most pitchers will only work an inning (or less), meaning hitters are constantly seeing different deliveries, release points and pitch mixes.
Key stat: This under is 6-2 in the past eight all-star games.
