Josh Beckett

Last night was a nail bitter as the Sox give up three runs in the bottom of the ninth and then win by four in the 11th. Today is a huge card as I will be placing three bets for tonights action.

Boston Red Sox @ Baltimore Orioles 
Josh Beckett (4-3, 6.50 era) will be on the hill for the Red Sox. Boston has to make their move now as they open a three game set with Baltimore at Camden Yards this evening. He will be facing Brian Matusz ( 6-12, 4.79 era). Beckett owns a career 5-1 record with a 2.98 era against the Orioles while Matusz has a 3-1 record with a 2.32 era in his last five starts. Play the UNDER 8.5(-105) runs.



Detroit Tigers @ Minnesota Twins
Two very hot pitchers going at it tonight at Target Field in Minneapolis. Both starters have a sub 2.00 era in their last three starts. Play the UNDER 8.5(-115) runs. This should be a pitchers duel with not many runs being scored.

Detroit opens a three game series against Minnesota

Colorado Rockies @ San Francisco Giants
The Giants lost a heart breaking last night in the ninth as Colorado scored two runs in the top of the inning to take the victory away from the jaws of defeat. Two rookies take the hill tonight as Esmil Rogers ( 2-2, 5.66 era) face off against Madison Bumgarner (5-4, 3.95 era). Look for the Giants to bounce back and win this game as the taste of last nights game remains fresh in their mouths. Take the Giants (-140) to win.
