The New York Yankees will be highly motivated for a victory Sunday. They have lost the first two games of this series to their rival Red Sox and want to avoid the sweep.

The Yankees have a big advantage on the mound with ace Gerrit Cole taking the ball. Cole is 8-3 with a 2.33 ERA and 0.848 WHIP in 15 starts this season with 123 K's in 96 2/3 innings. He is 1-0 with a 0.75 ERA in his last two starts against the Red Sox, allowing just one earned run in 12 innings.
Cole is 5-1 with a 2.35 ERA in seven road starts his season.



Eduardo Rodriquez is 5-4 with a 6.07 ERA and 1.459 WHIP in 14 starts this season. He is 0-4 with a 9.36 ERA in his last eight starts while allowing 35 earned runs in 33 2/3 innings.

Lastly, . I expect Cole to lead the Yankees to victory here as Cole is 33-10 as a road favorite of -125 to -175 in his career. Back the NY Yankees Sunday.
