Our New York Yankees vs Boston Red Sox Prediction
Game 1 between the Yankees and the Red Sox promises to be another low-scoring ball game despite both teams averaging at least five runs per game over their last five games.
Every time these two bitter rivals face each other, baseball fans can always expect quality pitching from both squads.
Sonny Gray will continue to deliver strong numbers on the mound, while Weather can deliver fantastic stints from time to time despite his troubles with consistency as of late.
Both bullpens are rock solid this season, with Boston’s relief pitchers sporting a 3.03 ERA and New York’s relievers commanding a 3.61 ERA.
Our betting prediction for the Boston Red Sox vs. the New York Yankees: Under 8.0 runs
