The Red Sox went 6-1 on their road trip, adn now they head home where they actually have a losing record. They will face an A's team that they should beat every game, but I have to admit I am worried about this game.
Buchholz has been terrible this year (2-1 8.87 ERA), and his numbers against he A's in his career aren't any better (1-2 with a 7.84 ERA in five starts). On top of that, the Red Sox have to face Tommy Milone who has been very good (3-1 2.00 ERA).
The Red Sox SHOULD win this game. They have a better lineup, and even though Buchholz has been terrible this is a lineup that is currently hitting .205. So even though I am worried about tonight, I just can't pick against the Sox when they are facing what is basically a AAA team.
Red Sox win 4-3
