Italy’s Unexpected Strategy Could Topple Venezuela—Is an Epic Upset Brewing?
This game will feature a few different storylines. The pitching edge probably goes to the Italians. Aaron Nola is the better starter, in my opinion. However, there are guys like Ronald Acuna Jr. who is every familiar with him. And, he is pretty good against him, hitting .308 with four homers in about 60 at-bats. I like the Venezuelan lineup. I think they are probably the more complete roster, but they do rely on hitting the ball out of the yard. Italy has been pretty good at preventing that. I’m going to grab Italy on the run line at +100. They are getting a run and a half. I don’t need them to win, if they can keep it close, which they’ve done a good job of, this is a winner. They just need to keep the line moving, something they’ve done better than anyone in this tournament.
