Free Betting Pick: Cleveland Indians +105
The Indians have been able to play decent on the season as of late and at home the Indians have been a lot harder to beat than what they have been since the start of the year. The Red Sox are putting Rodriguez on the mound and that will help them out, but he does not get the run support that is needed and the Indians are used to not having a lot of support. Final Score, Cleveland Indians win 5-2.
