The interleague series between the Atlanta Braves and Boston Red Sox will resume Saturday afternoon. First pitch from Fenway Park is set for 1:05 p.m. ET. The Red Sox are -120 on the money line, meaning it would take a $120 bet on Boston to return $100. Before you make any kind of pick, you need to see what SportsLine's advanced computer has to say.
This model, which simulates every game 10,000 times, entered the weekend on an impressive 4-1 run on its Major League picks.
Now, the computer has simulated Braves-Red Sox and identified a strong money-line pick, which you can get only over at SportsLine.
The model knows that both teams have excellent pitching, with Atlanta boasting a team ERA of 3.47 and Boston right behind at 3.51. Both also have big bats in their lineups, especially the Red Sox, who have a combined 31 home runs from J.D. Martinez and Mookie Betts.
The Braves entered the series 29-19 overall and 18-10 on the road, while the Red Sox are 34-16 and 18-10 at Fenway Park.
Taking the mound for Atlanta will be left-hander Sean Newcomb, who's 5-1 with a 2.39 ERA. The model says he'll strike out five Boston batters in five innings of work. He'll oppose Drew Pomeranz, also a southpaw, who's 1-2 with a 5.97 ERA. The computer model is predicting Pomeranz to fan five Braves in five innings.
