10* Red Sox/Yanks UNDER (AL EAST TOM)

These teams have been involved in several higher-scoring games of late, including in the Yanks 14-4 win here yesterday, but we're now finally anticipating a "duel" here on Sunday in the Bronx. NY has now seen the total go "over" in three straight, but note that the Yanks have in fact seen the total go "under" in four of their last five after playing to three or more straight "overs" in a row. Boston had its five-game win streak snapped yesterday and it's now seen the total go "over" in five straight games after the setback. But that's also significant to take note of, as the Red Sox have seen the total dip below the posted number in eight of their last 12 after playing to five or more straight "overs" in a row. We have two fantastic starting pitchers going head-to-head here, and we believe they'll "steal the show" in this contest and battle each other into the deep innings, with Kutter Crawford (4-7, 3.47 ERA) getting the call for the visitors and Luis Gil (9-3, 3.41) countering for the home side; this number is high, the play is the "under!"
