RED SOX/BLUE JAYS OVER 10.5 -110 - These clubs let me down last night as the two best offenses in baseball could only muster a combined 3 runs in 12 innings. Undeterred, I am looking for each of these teams? offenses to awaken this evening. Lowe may be 10-3, but his home/away splits are very severe. All 3 of his losses have come on the road, against 4 victories, and he has a very high 6.54 ERA and 1.88 ratio away from Fenway Park. The last time he pitched at Sky Dome earlier this season, he was rocked for 5 earned runs and 13 Men on Base in only 5.1 innings. Although the Jays have been slumping as of late, they still sports a fine team batting average of .298 here at home, where they average a hefty 6.21 runs per game. The converted reliever Escobar is starting to wear down a bit after a couple of good starts. He is winless in his last 3 outings with a 5.85 ERA and a high 1.50 ratio. The last time he faced Boston, Escobar was tattooed for 6 earned runs and 9 hits in 6.1 innings. Remember also that the Over is still an incredible 33-14 in all Boston road games this year, as well as 29-11 in Toronto home games.

as good as it looks .. I would still be wary of this play.
only +ve is the bull pen was used quite a lot yesterday and they may give up 11 runs by themselves
Escobar has been good but he is not Halladay .. even if he pitches well he shud be out by the 7'th or so . . Lowe has been pitching well as of late.
Good luck though
