Red Sox vs Brewers Prediction 

Boston comes into this matchup on a three game losing streak and they only have two wins on the season. The Red Sox are 1-3 at home this year, while the Brewers are 3-1 on the road. Milwaukee has won four of their last five games and their offense is rolling right now, as they have scored 5+ in all four of those wins. This is a fantastic pitching matchup, but I think Crochet has the edge, especially at home. Take Boston to win here.
