The Red Sox have to feel a bit cheated as they dropped a 2-1 decision to the Marlins last night in a game called after five innings due to rain. The Red Sox certainly haven't cheated themselves at home, especially against teams with a losing record on the season, where they are 9-2 with eight of the wins coming by two runs or more. The Braves got off to a good start, but have faltered over their last 22 games at 8-14. Over the 22-game stretch, they have been shutout three times, and score two runs or less in 11 of the 22 games. The Red Sox sport a 46-12 mark at Fenway in interleague play against right-hand starters. The Braves are just 5-16 in their last 21 on the road against teams with a .600 or better winning percentage, and the Braves are just 2-10 in the last 12 meetings vs. the BoSox. I'll ride with Boston here.
