The Boston Red Sox beat the Houston Astros 8-2 on Tuesday for a 2-1 series lead, much thanks to a Jackie Bradley Jr. grand slam in the 8th inning. I think runs will come fairly easy for both teams here in Game 4 of the series.
Boston right-hander Rick Porcello (17-7, 4.28 ERA) has allowed only one run through three outings covering 6 2/3 innings in the postseason this year, but he was tagged with seven runs (six earned) on 12 hits in as many innings against Houston during the regular season. Houston right-hander Charlie Morton (15-3, 3.13 ERA) made two starts against Boston and was charged with eight runs on 16 hits through 10 1/3 innings of work.
Trends supporting the over: Over is 14-3-1 in Red Sox last 18 overall. Over is 14-2-1 in Astros last 17 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. Over is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings at Minute Maid Park.
10* play on OVER.
