Boston has won nine of the past 10 meetings and the Tigers come into the game having split a doubleheader on Wednesday. Nick Pivetta is on the mound for the Red Sox, who have won six of his past seven starts when he has had four days of rest. Pivetta has a 1.07 WHIP and had a couple good outings against Tampa Bay and St. Louis before allowing five runs in 3 1/3 innings against Milwaukee on Saturday. Boston has won five of six against right-handed starters and they are up against Jack Flaherty, who is 1-4 with a 3.84 ERA and he hasn't gotten much run support. The UNDER is 5-0 in Pivetta's past five starts as a home favorite of -110 to -150 and the Red Sox have gone UNDER his past five home starts overall. The last four meetings went UNDER in 2023 and they are meeting for the first time this year. Take the Red Sox and the UNDER.
