MLB Friday

1-0 last selection. YTD 25-18-1 +10.50 units

Tampa at Boston.
A.J. Burnett shuts down the Red Sox 3 hits no runs into the 8th inning and take the game 3-0 at Fenway. 2 previous games were tight, but Sox were winners so the pressure is not apparent to the fact offense has produced only 4 runs in last 45 innins starting 4/26 @TB. Still winners 8 of last 11 home games you have to feel this shutout leads to production against TB in this turn around revenge game at Fenway against Jackson. Edwin Jackson was good in 4/26 match up going 7 innings 5 hits 1 run throwing 108 pitches 62 for strikes, but Clay Buchholtz was better going 8 innings 3 hits only a mistake thrown to Aki was 2 run HR ending in a loss. Since that match Boston offense have been quiet while Rays continued to roll. So is Tampa money with Jackson for the second round? At Fenway? I can't go against Red Sox comng off zero scoring, but I will back runline +1.5 and look for Jackson & TB boys to keep it tight. Jackson 4 out of 5 match up against Boston are 1 run games.

TAMPA Runline +1,5 -120 for 1 unit(L)

0-1 -1.20 units
