This is an 8* play OVER Cleveland-Boston

The Indians are off a dreadful homestand, one in which they finished just 3-7 and two of the wins came against last place Baltimore. Unfortunately, the job gets no easier for the Tribe as they now have to visit Fenway Park for Memorial Day. After their own awful start to the year, the Red Sox have actually surged past Cleveland for the AL's second Wild Card spot, but obviously there's still a long way to go. Today's game should be a lot higher scoring than usual, especially from the Cleveland perspective, as neither team will be sending its best pitcher to the mound. While the Under is 6-0 in starts made by the Indians' Jefry Rodriguez this season, that's generally been due to poor run support. Rodriguez has a 4.07 ERA and 1.36 WHIP, subpar numbers, and allowed nine runs in his last two starts. Boston goes with Porcello and while he's pitched better of late, he's still given up at least one HR in all but two starts. The Over is 8-2 when Porcello pitches. The Red Sox just got done playing three low-scoring games (all Unders) in Houston, but they average 5.6 runs/game at Fenway. Play OVER Cleveland-Boston
