Toronto Blue Jays
George Springer doubled in the unearned runner to leadoff the top of the 10th inning at Fenway Park on Wednesday and both teams went quietly from there in a 3–2 Toronto win.
Springer ambushed a first-pitch fastball from Ryan Brasier and pounded a line drive off the Green Monster to drive in Jackie Bradley Jr. with the winner.
Jose Berrios went six strong in a no-decision. He only gave up five hits and two runs, both coming on a second-inning home run off the bat of Franchy Cordero.
Brayan Bello went five for Boston and struck out a career-high seven hitters in his best start yet as a big leaguer.
Kevin Gausman got his ERA back under 3.00 with seven shutout innings his last time out at Yankee Stadium.
He’s given up just seven home runs in 129.1 innings this season and four of them came last month, including two at Fenway in the game Toronto won by 23 runs.
It was by far Gausman’s worst statistic start against Boston this season but the situation didn’t call for him to be sharp.
In his first three starts against Boston this season, Gausman gave up one earned run in 21 innings and went 2–0.
Boston Red Sox
Gausman will face the rookie, Kutter Crawford, making his eleventh start and ninth in a row.
After a fine month of July and first start in August, Crawford has hit something of a rookie wall here in August.
He’s given up 16 earned runs in his last three outings, including a career-high nine in his last outing against Baltimore.
His season ERA in that span has gone up by over 1.25 runs, from 3.86 to 5.14. He has given up five home runs.
This will be to avoid a sweep for the Red Sox.
MLB Baseball Betting Trends:
- Blue Jays are 5-0 in their last 5 games vs. a right-handed starter.
- Head to Head: Blue Jays are 16-5 in the last 21 meetings.
- Head to Head: Blue Jays are 6-0 in the last 6 meetings in Boston.
Toronto Blue Jays vs. Boston Red Sox MLB Prediction:
The Jays make this a sweep.
Toronto wins a fifth game head-to-head against Boston that Gausman starts.
And the road team covers the runline, which is priced relatively affordable for a mismatch of this size.
