Analysis · updated 7:01 AM ET

Ryan Weathers has been untouchable lately with a 2.08 ERA, and Jeffrey Springs brings a respectable 4.11 on the road. Despite the Yankees' explosive 7.0 runs per game over their last five, neither starter projects to get shelled early. Oakland's anemic 2.2 runs per game suggests they won't threaten Springs in the first inning either. Fade the first-inning scoring entirely.


NRFI Watch: Athletics @ Yankees — April 9, 2026

The Athletics bring an impressive streak of 7 on the scoreless side of the first-inning pattern, suggesting Jeffrey Springs and Oakland's lineup have been keeping things quiet early. On the mound for New York, Ryan Weathers has been sharp with a 2.08 ERA, making him a difficult target in the opening frame. While Springs carries a 4.11 ERA, quiet first innings can still happen regardless. The data points consistently toward a scoreless first inning in this one.
