Washington went over .500 with a 5-1 win over the Red Sox on Friday and Trey Lipscomb hit a go-ahead two-run single in the second. Boston left 11 men on base and lost its third in a row and fell to 7-10 at home this season. Jake Irvin will be on the mound for Washington and he has a 1.19 WHIP overall and he has done his best work on the road where he has a 2-0 record with a 2.35 ERA and a .198 opponent batting average. Boston starter Cooper Criswell has allowed six runs (three earned) in 11 1/3 inings at home. Washington has won seven of nine road games and nine of 13 overall. The Red Sox have lost six of seven while scoring a total of just seven runs in the six losses. Take the Nationals.

Result:
WIN
WIN
Boston is a big road favorite but plays its third straight road game after losing 6-2 yesterday as -145 chalk. The weather in Washington is steamy hot, so don't expect the starters to be around very long. Red Sox lefty Chris Sale has a 5.34 ERA on the road. Boston is 30-42 when Sale starts after a defeat, plus the team is 18-24 when he starts as a road favorite of -125 to -175. Washington is on an 8-4 run winning five times as an underdog. The Nationals play their sixth consecutive home contest and with the Red Sox 15-32 after playing two or more straight road games, back the home dog. Play Washington.
