8* RED SOX RUNLINE (SPECIAL)

I think that Nick Pivetta and the Red Sox have much more than just a "punchers chance" here vs. Alek Manoah and the Jays. Boston comes in as the much "hungrier" dog in this fight after losing the first 2 games of this series here in Toronto, falling 7-2 in the first and 6-5 last night. Pivetta is 8-5 with a 3.25 ERA, while Jays' starter Alek Manoah is 9-2 with a 2.05 ERA. Manoah's been great, but so too has Pivetta. Pivetta has struggled in 2 previous starts against the Jays, but that just adds fuel to the fire here. Note as well that Boston is 7-2 in its last 9 in trying to avenge 2 or more straight losses against an opponent. In a contest that I see being decided late or even in extras, I'm laying what I deem to be a very reasonable price for the extra 1.5 runs in my back pocket; the play is Boston on the runline option!
