American League vs National League
5* MLB All Star Game Free Pick Over
Each of the last two MLB All Star Games have seen eight runs or more, and I think we'll see Tuesday's contest fly over 7.5 runs as well. Petco Park has a reputation as a pitchers park, but we can note that the over is 26-17-2 with an average line of 7.4 in the Padres' home games this season.
This is obviously a contest set up for entertainment, and while pitchers' duels can be fascinating, the crowd prefers plenty of hits and homers. The MLB knows this, and both teams are set up with a focus on power in the lineup rather than defensive prowess. The teams will have designated hitters despite playing at a National League stadium which should put some extra pressure on the pitchers.
Look for the MLB All Star Game 2016 to go over the total.
