Run line/Against the spread (ATS)
The Red Sox are 74-72 ATS overall this season and 40-33 ATS on the road. However, they are only 9-19 ATS as road favorites.
Seattle’s 81-63 ATS record is the fifth-best in baseball. The Mariners have the seventh-best ATS mark at home with a 38-35 record, and as home underdogs are 32-13 ATS.
I’ll take the MARINERS +1.5 (-140) as extra insurance as I am leaning toward an outright win.
Over/Under (O/U)
Four of the five games between the two teams this season had 9 or more runs. The one that did not reach nine runs had 8 runs.
The Mariners’ last 10 games have had totals of 9 or more runs, while five of the last eight for the Red Sox have done so as well.
Take OVER 8.5 (+100).
