Daily Bet - Cleveland Indians vs Boston Red Sox


Written by: Josh Hammer, The Reserve Clause

My underdog pick of having the Dodgers win straight up last night showed to be true with a 6-2 victory over the San Diego Padres. I look to continue my streak tonight with a game in bean town.

MLB Pick For August 2, 2011:

Spread: Cleveland Indians +1.5/Boston Red Sox -1.5
Over/Under: 9

In tonight's match up we will have the Indians pitching David Huff (1-1, 0.71 ERA) and the Red Sox will be pitching Josh Beckett (9-4, 2.17 ERA). The Indians come in to tonight's game winning just 2 of their last 10 games. Although they beat the Red Sox last night, I look for Josh Beckett to return to form tonight. The Red Sox are 10-4 straight up in their last 14 games against the Indians played at home. I look for the always flashy bats of Boston to get a lead early and give Beckett run support. Beckett will follow up his loss in his previous outting with a stellar performance tonight.

MY PICK: Boston Red Sox to cover the spread -1.5
