Venue: Fenway Park
Prediction: New York Yankees
Bookmaker: 1xbet
It will be Nestor Cortes Jr. versus Nick Pivetta on Wednesday at Fenway Park when the Yankees and Red Sox meet in a game with massive playoff implications.
The Red Sox need Pivetta to pitch as he has on the road. Though he’s 4-2 at Fenway and 5-5 away, he has a 5.69 ERA with 17 home runs allowed across 68 innings in Boston this season compared to a 3.67 ERA with six home runs given up in 76 innings on the road.
Cortes has not quite duplicated the 2.29 ERA and .197 opponents batting average he had coming out of the bullpen, but he has been solid in his 12 starts.
He has a 2.94 ERA with 9.2 strikeouts per nine innings and has allowed three runs or fewer in all but one of his appearances this season.
After losing the first seven games of the season series, the Yankees won six of the next nine and last game with the second-best bullpen ERA.
The Red Sox are 2-6 in Pivetta’s last eight starts, with both wins coming against the Orioles. Included in that span was a start against the Yankees in which Pivetta gave up four runs.
