Best NRFI Bets Today – Free NRFI Picks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NRFI Best Bet Today #1: Chicago Cubs vs Chicago White Sox (-125)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re heading to Chicago for the Windy City Showdown as the Cubs play at the White Sox for three games starting tonight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shota Imanaga gets the start for the Cubs sporting a 1.33 road ERA heading into tonight and holding opponents scoreless in the first inning in 10 of his 13 starts this season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has been stellar in July so far posting a 2.13 ERA against the likes of the Guardians, Twins, Yankees and Red Sox. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The White Sox have failed to score in the first inning in 72% of their home games as they send Adrian Houser to the mound. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The White Sox righty posts a 0.69 home ERA in 26 innings this season and has a 1.86 ERA in three July starts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He hasn\u2019t allowed a first inning run in nine of his ten starts this season including five straight with the Cubs failing to score in the first inning in four straight games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A NRFI didn\u2019t occur during the first three head-to-head matchups, but we think that changes tonight. Play on a Cubs vs White Sox NRFI to occur at -125 odds<\/strong> and first pitch at 7:40PM ET.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NRFI Best Bet Today #2: Cleveland Guardians vs Kansas City Royals (-120)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We get the two best NRFI teams this season going head to head tonight as AL Central rivals Guardians and Royals go at it in Kansas City. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gavin Williams starts for Cleveland not allowing a first inning run in 14 of his 20 starts on the season. Current Royals batters are slugging just .295 against Williams all time with the Royals failing to score a first inning run at home in 76% of those games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michael Wacha takes the mound for Kansas City posting a 2.72 home ERA this season and current Guardians batters slugging just .305 against him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wacha gave up a first inning run for the first time this season in his last start but before that was a perfect 19-0 in not allowing a first inning run. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Guardians have failed to score a first inning run in 77% of their road games and it\u2019s worth noting that the first six head to head matchups this season between these two resulted in a NRFI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Play on a Guardians vs Royals NRFI to occur<\/strong> tonight with first pitch slated for 8:10PM ET and odds listed at -120<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
