BREAKDOWN:

⚾ On The Surface hitting wise for the season they seem pretty evenly matched up. But when you look into the splits the Braves are better hitting LHP than the Red Sox are. On top of that Tucker Davidson is pitching at a high level so far in 17.2 innings pitched and I feel he gets his first win of the season here!

💰🔮 My guess at the ML number before looking Braves -145 | Live Line is Braves -115.
