Boston Red Sox
The Red Sox will miss the playoffs as they are 10 games behind the Oakland Athletics for the second AL Wild Card spot. It has been a disappointing year for the defending champs who had high expectations for the season.
A concern in Boston has been their pitching. The team has allowed 744 runs this season. The offense hasn’t been an issue as they rank fourth in the AL in scoring (823).
The offense is led by guys like Xander Bogaerts (31 homers), Rafael Devers (29 homers), J.D. Martinez (35 homers), and Mookie Betts (28 homers).

On the mound for Boston is veteran Rick Porcello. Porcello is 12-12 with a 5.83 ERA. The righty has been abysmal but has received a fair share of run support from the explosive Sox offense. He has allowed the opposition to hit .284.

Philadelphia Phillies
The Phillies are looking to grab an NL Wild Card spot. At 76-70 the Phillies are two games behind the Brewers and Cubs who are tied for the second wild card spot. It’s surprising that the Phillies are in position to be able to make the playoffs considering they have a -3 run differential on the season.
The issue for Philadelphia like Boston has been their pitching. The Phillies have allowed the fourth most runs in the National League. Pitchers like Vince Velasquez (4.95 ERA), Nick Pivetta (5.52 ERA), Jake Arrieta (4.64 ERA), and Jerad Eickhoff (5.71 ERA).
Philadelphia will go with Vince Velasquez for Sunday afternoon’s matchup against the Red Sox. Velasquez is 6-7 with a 4.95 ERA. The righty has allowed 24 homers in only 103.2 innings.

Free Boston Red Sox vs. Philadelphia Phillies MLB Prediction: Phillies ML
In what is a near even pitching matchup I believe that Velasquez will out-duel Porcello in a must-win game for Philly. Look for the Phillies to come out with a narrow win.
