An 11-inning game last night helped to tax both bullpens. The Red Sox will go with Nick Pivetta (4.08 ERA) here, and the team is 8-2 OVER the total in his last 10 starts. That includes an 11-6 win over New York in his last start while giving up eight hits and six runs in three-plus innings. Pivetta has an ERA of 10.00 in two starts versus the Yankees this season. Boston is on a 7-2 run OVER the total with the offense fifth in runs scored, eighth in on-base percentage, and seventh in slugging. New York's offense is No. 1 in runs scored, second in on-base percentage, and second in slugging. The Yankees are on a 7-1 run OVER the total, and starter Jameson Taillon (4.01 ERA) has a 10.80 ERA against Boston this season, so expect another offensive show in the Bronx. Play this one to go OVER the total.
