This is a 9* TOTAL on the UNDER Yanks/Red Sox.

This is the fourth game of a four game series between the Red Sox and Yankees, and so far the first three have flown well OVER the posted number. New York won the first game 6-5, the second game 12-5, before Boston then bounced back in yesterday's 6-5 victory.

We're expecting the finale to be me much more of a "DUEL" though.

Neither starter has been perfect this season, but each has been incredibly solid. Each has hit a scuffling patch, but here's the perfect stage for a bounce back performance.

Jameson Taillon is 9-2 with a 3.63 ERA for New York, while Nick Pivetta is 8-6 with a 3.68 ERA for the Red Sox.

They're evenly matched and they're poised to battle deep into this contest.

Boston has seen the total go UNDER the number in eight of its last 12 after playing to three or more straight OVERS in a row and we're expecting this strong trend to continue on Sunday night.

This number is high, the play is the UNDER.

Good luck, NP
