Preview
The Boston Red Sox and the Detroit Tigers will play the 3rd game of the series at the Comerica Park on Wednesday. Boston won the second game on Tuesday and the series is tied 1-1.
Boston Red Sox
The Red Sox beat the Tigers 5-3 on Tuesday and they get to this game with a 2-3 record so far. The team is averaging 3 runs and allowing 4 runs per game. JD Martinez is leading the team with 1 home run and 4 RBI while Rafael Devers is batting for .381.
Rich Hills started the game losing, he allowed 5 hits, 3 runs striking out 4 in 4.1 innings. The bullpen took it from there and saved the game by allowing no runs for the rest of the game.
Probable Pitcher:
Nathan Eovaldi (0-0, 5.40 ERA) will take the mound in the 3rd game of the series for the Red Sox. Eovaldi allowed three runs on five hits and a walk while striking out seven in five innings during Friday's loss to the Yankees. He didn't factor into the decision. He had one start against the Tigers last season and didn't go well as he allowed 6 runs in 4.1 innings.
Detroit Tigers
The Tigers get here with a 2-3 record and have struggled offensively averaging only 2.75 runs while allowing 5 runs per game. Austin Meadows leads the team, batting for a .462 avg and .563 .OBP. Javier Baez has 4 RBI and 1 home run.
Tyler Alexander was the starter in the loss against the Red Sox and he allowed 3 runs and 5 hits, striking out 4 in 5.1 innings pitched.
Probable Pitcher:
Eduardo Rodriguez (0-0, 6.75 ERA) will be on the mound for the Tigers in the 3rd game of the series. Rodriguez allowed three runs on four hits and two walks while striking out two over four innings Friday against the White Sox. He didn't factor into the decision. The 29-year-old posted a career-worst 4.74 ERA and 1.39 WHIP in 32 appearances (31 starts) last year, but he had a career-best 27.4 percent strikeout rate.
BETTING TRENDS
Boston are 9-4 SU in their last 13 games against Detroit.
The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Boston's last 6 games.
The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Detroit's last 5 games against Boston.
The total has gone UNDER in 10 of Detroit's last 13 games at home.
Prediction
The Tigers have shown poor offense so far averaging only 2.75 runs per game. The Red Sox haven't been great but they have the better lineup and they know Eduardo Rodiguez. Give me the Red Sox to win.
