Expert Betting Tips
It's likely that I'll stick with the Sox in this finale. In his last three appearances, Bello has a record of 2-0 with just four earned runs allowed across a combined 20.2 innings. Luzardo, on the other hand, has only allowed two earned runs over the course of his most recent 13.0 innings pitched. On Thursday, Boston had one awful inning when it came to scoring, but the pitching staff as a whole had a difficult evening overall. However, my prediction is for the Red Sox to win in this final game and save themselves from being swept.
