The Boston Red Sox have reached the end of a disastrous road trip, losing five of the last six scoring a total of 16 runs. Boston 3B Pablo Sandoval is 3-for-24 on the road trip. The Boston offense has plunged to 22nd in runs scored with the team on a 20-8-1 run UNDER the total, including 8-3 UNDER on the road. Boston is 7-17 away against a left-handed starter, and things won't get easier on offense against Rangers lefty Wandy Rodriguez (2-2, 3.60). Teams are hitting .212 off him, with the team winning four of his last five starts. That includes a win over these Red Sox allowing one run in 6+ innings, a 3-1 victory 10 days ago. The Rangers are 22-9-6 UNDER the total against a righty starter, plus 6-1 UNDER when Wandy Rodriguez starts. Texas is also 7-1 against the AL East, plus 6-2 versus a team with a losing record. Meanwhile, Boston is 1-4 when Joe Kelly starts, and the slumping Sox are 3-7 in this park. In addition, the UNDER is 6-1 when they clash, including 10-2-1 UNDER the total in Texas. Play Texas and the game UNDER the total.
