Money Line: 129.00 LA Dodgers (Away)
Result: Loss
The set-up: After falling 8-4 in Game 1, I believe the Dodgers will respond in Game 2 with a victory behind what I believe to be the superior pitcher on the mound for them. The visitors hand the ball to Hyun-Jin Ryu, while the home side goes with David Price.
The teams: Ryu finished the regular season 7-3 with a 1.90 ERA and 1.008 WHIP with 15 walks and 89 strikeouts over 76.1 frames of action. He's so far 1-1 with a 4.40 ERA in the playoffs.
Price went 16-7 with a 3.58 ERA in the regular season and he's 1-1 with a 5.11 ERA and 1.38 WHIP over 12.1 post-season innings thus far.
The pick: Take it for what you will as well, but Boston is interestingly just 1-4 in its last five Game 2 of a series, while LA is 4-0 in its last four interleague road games vs. southpaws. Looks like we're headed to West Coast all knotted up at one game apiece.
