4/4 MLB: Boston at Texas

[swole]

Boston expects to build on last game's 7-3 win against the Rangers Tuesday and they entrust Tim Wakefield to get the job done at Ameriquest Field.

The Red Sox start Tim Wakefield, who went 16-12 last season with a 4.15 ERA. The Rangers send Vincente Padilla to the mound; Padilla finished 9-12 last season with a 4.71 ERA.

Sporting an 0-1 overall record and an 0-0 mark within the division, the Rangers aim to knock the Red Sox (0-0 in the division) for a loss.

The Rangers are favored slightly by the bookmakers, who opened the game at -115. They are 0-1 on the season, while the Red Sox bring a 1-0 mark to the table. The total has been set at 10.

Terry Francona's team was busy last game winning against the Rangers 7-3 as a 100 pick. The 10 runs sent that game as a push against the total.

Some trends to consider:
Boston is 1-0-4 OU in its last 5 games away against Texas
Boston is 2-2-2 OU in its last 6 away
Boston is 3-4-2 OU in its last 9 games
Boston is 4-0-2 OU in its last 6 games against Texas
Texas is 4-0-2 OU in its last 6 games against Boston
Texas is 4-1-1 OU in its last 6 at home
Texas is 1-0-4 OU in its last 5 games at home against Boston
Texas is 1-4-0 SU in its last 5 games after scoring 1 to 3 runs
