#931/932 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Under 8.5 Runs – Boston Red Sox vs Tampa Bay Rays, Sunday at 4:07 PM ET – After the wild 14-6 Red Sox win on Friday, look for things to return to typical playoff baseball in this one. Tampa Bay starter Drew Rasmussen has a 1.93 ERA in his 10 starts this season and 7 of them stayed under the total. Rasmussen has a 1.20 ERA in his last 3 starts. Nathan Eovaldi starts for Boston and he has given up only 1 earned run in 11 and 1 / 3 innings in his last two starts. Also, in Eovaldi's last two home starts versus the Rays he has allowed just 1 earned run on only 6 hits while striking out 18 in 14 innings! Both teams have been trending heavily to the under in recent weeks and have not had back to back overs in over two weeks. That being said, after Friday's slugfest, look for this one to be a tight game throughout with runs at a premium. Per our computer math model, this game lands around 6 to 7 runs and even if it reaches 8 that is still a winning ticket based on the 8.5 that is posted at most books as of early morning Sunday. We like the odds being in our favor for a well-pitched affair in this one! Bet the UNDER
