The Cincinnati Reds (33-54) and New York Yankees (61-26) meet Wednesday at 7:05 p.m. ET to continue a 3-game series at Yankee Stadium. Let’s analyze Tipico Sportsbook‘s lines around the Reds vs. Yankees odds with MLB picks and predictions.
Season series: Reds lead 1-0.
The Reds notched an improbable 9th-inning comeback Tuesday to earn their 5th straight triumph. Five of Cincinnati’s last 7 wins have been by a 1-run margin.
The Yankees spit the bit on a 3-run cushion in the ninth inning of Tuesday’s lid-lifter. New York has now lost 3 straight, something it had not done since May 22-23.

Run line/Against the spread
The Yankees have some season pitch limits to monitor over the second half. Severino in his return from Tommy John surgery is one of those, and he takes the mound for this one with 6 days’ rest. In 4 other such situations this season, the New York righty has logged a 6.63 ERA.
TAKE THE REDS +2.5 (-117).
Over/Under
This series has some systemic Under lean produced by expected-versus-actual performance figures for the Cincy bullpen and the Yanks offense. The banged-up Yankee bullpen is starting to have the look of a relief corps that could spoil an Under, but the price here is solid.
Take the UNDER 8.5 (+110).
