MLB Betting – Red Sox Nation Face Struggling Tigers

BetUS MLB betting odds: Boston -125, Detroit +105; Total 8.5 (-110 each way)

The Boston Red Sox (22-14) have started to make their bid to put a little distance between themselves and other challengers in the American League East, and that quest continues on Thursday night when they play the last in a three-game set against the disappointing Detroit Tigers (15-20) in AL action that is set to get underway at 7:05 PM ET at Comerica Park (natural turf) in Detroit.

Josh Beckett (3-2, 4.19 ERA), who has gone eight innings in two of his last three efforts, will start the game for the Red Sox, while fellow right-hander Justin Verlander (1-5, 6.28 ERA), who's had a hard time getting hitters out, will take the hill for the Tigers.

At BetUS Sportsbook, Boston is listed as a -125 favorite (Detroit is +105), with a total of 8.5 runs (Over and Under are both -110).
