Sport: MLBPick Selection: Boston Red Sox -1.5 (-107)
Listing: Suppan vs. Matsuzaka
This is what we wrote last night:
What is going on in Bean town and the Red Sox? They have lost 4 straight and 6 of 8. Well something has to give. And we think that that something gives tonight.
Matsuzaka goes for the Sox and he has been dynamite this year; ERA of 2.45 while giving up just 28 hits in 47.2 innings pitched. Even more impressive is his 1.42 ERA in his last 3 starts.
The Brewers counter with Suppan who hasn't faired quite as well as Matsuzaka with a 4.63 ERA and a 2-2 record. He has conceded 25 hits in his last 15 innings with a WHIP of 2.17 and an ERA of 6.89 in his last 3 starts.
Boston was 12-6 in interleague play last season and is 16-3 in its last 19 interleague games at Fenway Park, hitting .312 with 23 homers.
We liked Boston to win comfortably here last night and we like them just as much here a day later.
