NRFI betting data

NRFI Prediction 1: Rays vs White Sox (-135)

Dylan Cease and Shane McClanahan are picking up right where the left off in the 2022 season. Combined they are 6-0 and each sport an ERA of 2.01 or lower.

McClanahan has only allowed a run in the first inning in one of his four starts with Cease not allowing a run in the first inning in any of his.

It’s a perfect spot for a NRFI to occur in this game if you also consider that both of these teams have done some scoring themselves in first inning as of late.

Both starting pitchers have a WHIP of under 1.15 this season with Cease showcasing a 2.00 road ERA last season and McClanahan 2.81 home ERA. Play on a NRFI bet in the Rays vs White Sox game at -135 before first pitch at 4:05pm ET.

NRFI Prediction 2: Braves vs Astros (-115)

Kyle Wright is still looking to get back into his 2022 form in which he went 21-5 with a 3.19 ERA. He’s winless in two starts this season while sporting a 6.23 ERA but hasn’t allowed a first inning run in each of those starts.

He goes head-to-head with Astros ace Framer Valdez currently holding onto a 1.80 ERA through four starts. He hasn’t allowed a run in the first in three of his four starts and also has a 1.16 WHIP so far this season.

The Astros have been apart of a NRFI in four of their last six games with a NRFI happening in three of last five Braves games. Play on a NRFI in the Braves vs Astros matchup at -115 with first pitch happening at 7:20pm ET.
