New York Yankees at Boston Red Sox Prediction

Heading into Saturday’s AL East showdown between New York and Boston, the Yankees are the favorite to come out on top. Boston starter Kutter Crawford will be tasked with cooling down a New York offense that just put up 12 runs. Look for a lot of runs to be scored between the two teams. I recommend taking the over at 9.5 runs.
