The set-up: This series features a couple of very interesting match-ups on the mound and there's no doubt that this early afternoon Tuesday contest is one of them. I think runs are going to be plentiful this afternoon. The visitors hand the ball to Nate Eovaldi, while the home side goes with JA Happ.

The pitchers: Eovaldi is so far 5-7 with a 4.22 ERA. He returns to the starting rotation for the remainder of the season. He's been more "miss" than "hit" for the Red Sox this year though, a big reason why he was quickly shifted to the bullpen originally. Note that he's been poor on the road with a 2-6, 5.68 ERA.

Happ is so far 16-6 with a 3.75 ERA. Happ's been as solid as New York could have possibly asked for since coming over from the Jays, but I will point out that he still does own a very pedestrian 4.90 ERA in all home instances this season.

The pick: Take it for what you will as well, but Boston has seen the total go "over" the number in eight of its last 12 American League road games in which it's an underdog in the -125 to -200 range. This number is low, play the "over."
