Scott's MLB 3-Game Package
(MLB) NY Yankees vs. Boston, 07/25/2021 1:10 PM, Score: 4 - 5
Total: 10.50 | -107.00 Over
Result: Loss
6* OVER 10.5 runs in Boston - going to what is normally my lowest rating, a 6*, on all my plays today. I know the Yankees are still down a couple guys in the lineup but they have plenty of guys still in there with experience against Martin Perez and he comes into this start struggling. The Red Sox southpaw has a 4.85 ERA his last 3 starts but it easily could be much higher as he has been getting hit hard. On the season, Perez has a 1.80 WHIP at Fenway Park so his 5.80 ERA at home is certainly no fluke and arguably could be even higher. Hitter friendly conditions at Fenway Park expected this afternoon as strong winds likely to be blowing out on a summer afternoon. This sets up well for a high-scoring game because Domingo German has struggled in his last two starts at Boston with 8 earned runs allowed in 8 and 1/3 innings. German is off a short outing versus the Phillies and could struggle here in a venue he often struggles at. This is particularly true with Boston off yesterday's 4-3 loss where they gave up the late lead and the Red Sox had won 4 straight games and averaged 8 runs per game during that hot streak. The Yankees have won 5 of 7 games and averaged 5.6 runs per game in the 5 wins. This one shapes up well to be a slugfest. 6* OVER 10.5 in Boston
