Boston Red Sox vs Colorado Rockies Prediction

The Boston Red Sox didn't look great against the Dodgers, but we can't forget they entered the break as one of the hottest teams in baseball. I'd assume the Red Sox can get back on track against a bad Rockies side. Tanner Houck has also been solid this season, while Austin Gomber has run far more hot and cold. The Red Sox can't afford to blow games like this, especially after just getting swept by the Dodgers. Must win games for the Red Sox. Give me the road team with the better pitcher.
