Boston at Detroit

The Tigers ended their five-game losing streak and Boston's five-game winning streak with a come-from-behind win yesterday. Detroit's offense came alive with 18 hits and 10 runs. We look for that momentum to carry through to this game. The teams' aces take the mound and neither has lived up to expectations thus far. Despite their recent good run and healthy overall 22-14 record, the Sox are still a losing team on the road (8-9), where their offense struggles (4.4 runs per game). Detroit averages over a full run more than that at home (5.5) and they have the bullpen advantage. They have a winning record as an underdog the past two seasons and have gone 30-22 as a dog of less than +150.
