This looks like a prime spot to fade the Pittsburgh Pirates, who were shut out Saturday and continue to struggle immensely against left-handed pitching, sitting at just 11-24 (-43% ROI) versus southpaw starters this season. Boston turns to left-hander Patrick Sandoval (1-1, 3.30 ERA), and the Red Sox have won four of his five starts since he entered the rotation. Sandoval held Pittsburgh scoreless over seven dominant frames in his lone previous career start against them.

Expect another explosive, high-scoring contest at Dodger Stadium on Tuesday night as the Los Angeles Dodgers and Kansas City Royals meet for Game 2 following Monday’s wild 6-5 Dodgers victory. With both starting pitchers facing major red flags and two relief corps showing noticeable strain lately, the offense should stay in high gear.
