Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

The bet on 'Boston Red Sox Under 4.5' for the Team Total Runs (Alternate) market is a promising choice based on several key statistics. Although the Red Sox's recent performance shows an average of 5.2 runs scored at home, the Yankees' defensive stats indicate a strong counterpoint. The Yankees have allowed an average of just 3.4 runs in their last five games, suggesting a solid defensive performance. Additionally, the Red Sox's batting average of 6.8 hits per game and the Yankees' pitching average of only 3.6 base on balls further support this under bet. The Red Sox's recent record against the Yankees (2-3) also indicates that they have struggled to score against this team. Therefore, while the Red Sox have a strong offensive record, the Yankees' defensive stats and head-to-head record suggest that the Red Sox may score under 4.5 runs.
