Result:
LOSS

Boston has upgraded the offense with the addition of Yoenis Cespedes and he is smack in the middle of the lineup providing much needed outfield punch. That was evident yesterday in a blowout win in Tampa as he singled home their first run his first time up, then came around to score, then doubled in a run in the second inning.  The Boston offense faces struggling Jake Odorizzi (9-11, 4.23 ERA), who lost Monday against the Orioles as he pitched four innings and allowed eight runs, 11 hits. He has allowed 11 runs his last 10+ innings and has a 5.79 ERA against Boston this season. The over is 3-1-2 in Odorizzi's last six starts with four days of rest. Tampa Bay is 9th in baseball in on base percentage and faces young Wild Man Allen Webster, who has a 5.81 ERA walking 20 in 31 innings! The over is 9-4 in Webster's last 13 starts. Tampa Bay is a good offensive park and the over is 4-0 in Odorizzi's last four home starts against a team with a losing record. Play the Red Sox/Rays Over the total.
