Our Kansas City Royals vs Boston Red Sox Prediction

Both teams are coming into the game playing pretty decent baseball, but the Red Sox are playing a little bit better than the Royals. With this pitching matchup, the Red Sox have a slight advantage. Bello averaged two earned runs allowed per game in July. Falter also allowed 12 runs in July, but in five starts.  The UNDER is certainly worth thinking about for this game, but the best bet looks to be the Boston ML.
