Tampa Bay at Boston

Boston has struggled against the Rays this season but they are still the better team and should win this game. Josh Beckett has struggled as well but he won't continue as he has been all season. He will return to form at some point and the fact remains he dominated the Rays on opening day. He seeks revenge tonight for a bad outing last time vs. Tampa Bay. Tampa Bay is still 9-10 on the road this season while Boston is 12-4 at home and 43-14 in pre- All Star play at home the past two seasons. The Sox are averaging 6.8 runs per game at home while Tampa Bay is getting 4.9 per game on the road. Since last season, the Rays are 14-29 on the runline after playing 4+ straight road games. I'll back the Sox to bounce back here with a 2+ run win.
