I'm banking on a high-scoring affair considering Lester/Harden have each faced the other team twice and have combined to give him 7 HRs in 17 IP.
I'm also banking on the BoSox being very confident after living up to the hype and being able to handle all the pressure bestowed upon them leading up to this series. The A's looked heartbroken and completely flustered after just one game. Their ace gets rocked in the 6th. Their closer blows the lead AND loses the game. Just when it looks like their about to mount a comeback in the bottom of the 10th, Emil Brown tries to make it to 3rd w/ 1 out, down by 1, and he gets thrown out at 3rd. His head was shaking as he slowly walked to the dugout. His manager's head was shaking. And very soon after the Red Sox were shaking each other's hands with huge smiles on their faces.
The Red Sox know they just need to win this game and they'll be on their way home to the States where they can rest it up in beautiful Los Angeles for the weekend as they play the Dodgers. The best flight they can have is one after sweeping the season opening 2-game series.
With momentum and confidence from game one and the amazing feeling they'd have after completing the 2-game sweep, I can't see THE CHAMPS! losing this game.
Red Sox ML -110, 1 Unit
Red Sox RL +135, .5 Unit
Bos/Oak o9.5 -125 1 unit
2-1-1, +1 units on the year if you check the plays I posted around the forum yesterday althought I messed up and said I took the Mets & D'Bax yesterday when infact I took the Mets & Brewers. So best thing to do is just not count anything and start from scratch.
Score of 9-6 Red Sox would be awesome!
