Cleveland has a winning road record and is 12-3 against a right-handed starter. Trevor Bauer is also a 10-game winner and in a groove, allowing one run in each of his last three starts (22 innings, three walks, and 22 Ks). Cleveland is 75-43 against AL teams allowing 4.4 or less runs per game. Boston is home from playing a showdown series against the Yankees in the Bronx and had the late ESPN game Sunday night, going 10 innings. They played a four-game set with New York a month ago, then lost the first game after that to Toronto, 4-3, as a favorite. The Red Sox go with aging Doug Fister (5.03 ERA), who has allowed 42 hits and 19 walks in 39 innings, and he is 7-21 when facing the AL Central. Play Cleveland.
