Boston Red Sox vs NY Yankees Prediction

I’ll stay with the Red Sox. Crawford took a loss to the Dodgers his last time up, giving up six earned in 5.0 innings. Prior to that however, Crawford had 14.0 clean innings in a pair of wins. As for Stroman, he’s 0-2 in his last three with eight earned in 14.2 innings total.

On Friday the Sox were in trouble with a 7-4 deficit at one point but stormed back for the victory. I like Boston to keep it rolling against a flailing Yankees team on Saturday.
