Why the Diamondbacks Will Beat the Red Sox

  • The Diamondbacks have won each of their last five games as underdogs.
  • The Red Sox have lost seven of their last eight games against NL West opponents that held a winning record.
  • The Diamondbacks have covered the run line in seven of their last eight day games against American League opponents that held a winning record.
  • The Red Sox have failed to cover the run line each of their last four games at Fenway Park against teams that held a winning record.
  • The Red Sox have trailed after 3 innings in three of their last four games as favorites against NL West opponents.
  • The Red Sox have trailed after 5 innings in three of their last four games as home favorites against NL West opponents.

Arizona Diamondbacks vs Boston Red Sox Prediction

This is a good place to take the Diamondbacks. Gallen gave up four runs in his last start, and it’s going to be much of the same here. Crawford gave up three runs in his last start, but he has a higher ERA, and he’s going to be lit up here. The Diamondbacks are going to run up the score and this game is going to get out of control early. Back the Diamondbacks on the money line to cash here.
