DEVIL RAYS/RED SOX Under 10 ?110 - These clubs combined to score only 5 runs on Tuesday, and I am looking for another low scoring affair tonight. Jeff Suppan finally appears to have settled down in a Boston uniform, as he has now posted 3 Quality Starts in his last 4 outings. Moreover, he has allowed only 5 runs and 8 hits in 13 innings of work over his last 2 efforts. He should prove tough vs. a Devil Rays lineup that is batting just .234 vs. right-handed pitchers in their last 10 games. I don?t see Tampa Bay scoring more than 3 runs here, meaning that the Red Sox would need to score at least 7 runs for us not to cash this ticket. Zambrano was hit hard his last time out vs. the Yankees, but he pitched extremely well in his 2 previous starts, limiting Oakland and Seattle to 4 runs on 13 hits in 15 innings. While he has been rather erratic, I see no reason why Zambrano can?t at least contain this Boston lineup, thereby ensuring the Under. Keep in mind also that the Under is 3-0-1 in the last 4 Boston games, and that Tampa Bay has scored 3 runs or less in 3 of their last 4 games.

may give this a shot also, your correct about Suppan. Zambrano is certainly capable off a quality start, he has beaten Boston already this season. Only problem is bp' s, little isn't happy at all with Boston bullpen, nobody in Boston rests easy from 7th on. That's why Pedro pitched cg yesterday. Beautiful day in Boston no humidity light air, you might want to check wind closer to 7.
Good luck
