As if there was ever any doubt, both teams have proven well capable of scoring runs here early in the season. The Mariners claimed the series opener 12-4 before Boston tied the series with a come-from-behind 7-6 triumph Friday night, and I think Game 3 will see plenty of action over the plate as well.

Boston left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez (2018: 13-5, 3.82 ERA) was reached for seven runs (six earned) on 13 hits in 10 innings of work against Seattle last season. Over is 4-0 in Mariners last four home games vs. a left-handed starter.

The Mariners turn to Mike Leake (10-10, 4.36 ERA) who posted a 3.21 ERA covering 14 innings in a pair of starts against the Red Sox last season. The right-hander has however struggled throughout spring training and was charged with 11 earned runs over his last three starts. Over is 12-4-2 in Red Sox last 18 games vs. a right-handed starter.

Xander Bogaerts was 1-for-3 with a homer in Friday's matchup and has five hits in 12 at bats against Leake.

10* play on OVER.
