Oakland at Boston

You know the Boston Red Sox poor start is not sitting well with players, fans, or management. And they got a huge hit last night from their catalyst Justin Pedroia as he belted a grand slam home run. That should get the Sox jump started as they send Jon Lester to the mound who is just 2-4, but owns a 3.10 ERA. Tommy Milone has not won a game for the A's this season, and is the weakest link in an otherwise solid rotation. Milone has had one career start vs. Boston, and that did not work out very well as Boston socked him for eight earned runs. Boston owns a 37-17 mark at home behind Lester to a total of 9-10.5, and overall the Sox have won five straight vs. a team over .600.  The A's have a history of frustration at Fenway where they are 16-35 in their last 51. Make the play on Boston.
