The Boston Red Sox's previously so impressive bats are struggling. They mustered only five hits in Monday's 3-1 loss against the Chicago White Sox, and tonight's total looks very high to me.
Chris Sale (11-2, 2.94 ERA) will take the ball for the White Sox. He's struggled lately with a 6.07 ERA through his last five starts, but his career numbers against Boston are impressive. He's posted a 2.51 ERA in nine career games (four starts) against the Red Sox and has their current hitters limited to a respectable .237 batting average.
Boston will turn to Clay Buchholz (3-6, 5.86) who will make his first start since May 26th. He's been working out of the bullpen since, with pretty decent results. This is Buchholz chance to earn back his spot in the rotation, and I think he'll come up with a big performance. He has the current White Sox team limited to a .214 batting average over 154 at bats. Melky Cabrera is just 7-for-34 and Jose Abreu 1-for-9 against the right-hander.
I think we have a favorable umpire situation as well as the under is 3-0-1 in Greg Gibson's last four Tuesday games behind home plate and 5-1-1 in Gibson's last seven games behind home plate vs. Boston.
