Unfortunate loss yesterday with Colorado getting swept in Milwaukee. Pitching did return in that game which ended in 1-3 score Jimenez went all the way and Wolf, although not as sharp, got the timely hit to back up his 7 inning performance.
Boston Red Sox at Cleveland Indians
Sox, since sweeping the Yankees at NY, have been rolling. They just finished their home stand sweeping Detroit and taking 2 out of 3 from Cubs in Interleague. Now they're in Cleveland where Clay Buchholtz gets the call. Clay winning 3 out of last 4starts and Sox winning all 4. His last start against Detroit was a pitchers duel he gave up nothing in 7 innings struck out 7 walked 1 Boston coming out ahead 1-0, but Clay threw whopping 127 pitches. Red Sox are will take their hot streak to Progressive Field where Indians are 18-4 and Justin Masterson has pitched 8 out of 9 quality games. He too is coming off a pitchers duel at Chicago White Sox where he ended on the losing side of 0-1 and he too has thrown tons of pitches. I'm going Over in this seemingly Under 8.5 situation. I feel the Pitchers will regress with hot bats on both sides. Buchholtz is 1-3 O/U away, but his quality number drops, his ground out number drops and there's a rise in WHIP. Masterson at home is 4-1 O/U and though 80% quality gives up a bit more. Going Over at highly rated hitters park where production is 3rd highest in American League.
