#969/970 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Over 9.5 Runs – Tampa Bay Rays @ Boston Red Sox, Tuesday at 7:10 PM ET – Rays 11, Sox 10. That was the final score in extra innings yesterday in a game that was 9-9 after 9 and this continued a season-long trend when these teams are matched up. The over is 11-5 in their meetings including 6-1 in games played at hitter-friendly Fenway Park. Even though Eduardo Rodriguez just had a quality start at Tampa Bay, the Rays have otherwise been a red hot team and Rodriguez has a 5.69 ERA in home starts this season! The Red Sox lefty gave up 5 earned runs in 3 and 2 / 3 innings in most recent start at Fenway. With yesterday's win, Tampa Bay improved to 23-7 last 30 games and have scored, incredibly, an average of 7 runs per game during this stretch! The Red Sox are known for being one of the top hitting teams in baseball when at home and they have scored an average of 8 runs per game in their last 8 as a host. Drew Rasmussen starts for the Rays here and has transitioned well from the bullpen. He has posted solid numbers though he averages only 3 and 2 / 3 innings per start. However, this will be the 3rd time he has faced the Red Sox in a span of 4 weeks and it is going to catch up with him here. The way Boston has been hitting when at Fenway Park is going to flip the script against Rasmussen this time around. The righty has a 4.72 ERA in road outings in his young career. This total is in the 9.5 range and our computer math model shows this one getting into double digits in runs scored with each club enjoying success at the plate and having a solid shot of getting to 5 runs apiece which, of course, would mean at least 11 runs (6-5 final at a minimum) in this one.
