It might not feel like it for those who bet on the Boston Red Sox last night (victims to the largest comeback in Orioles history), but as the 2009 All Star break approaches, the BoSox have the best record in the AL, and have been a profitable play for bettors when picking their spots.
Today they hit the field trying to shake off yesterday’s collapse and win the series with Baltimore.
Hey, look who’s back in the majors! It’s John Smoltz, who has missed over a year after undergoing shoulder surgery.
He’s not doing the Tomahawk Chop in Atlanta anymore though but rather, he’s taking the mound for the Boston Red Sox.
Smoltz’s first start for the BoSox comes tonight when his new team heads to the nation’s capital to play the Nationals—SPORTSBETTING.com has Boston listed as a -135 road favorite and the Total is set at 9.
