Nathan Eovaldi has come through as a good No. 2 pitcher for the Red Sox. He's had four of six excellent starts and is facing a weak Tigers lineup that ranks 30th in runs, batting average and OPS. 

Tigers starter Spencer Turnbull has pitched better than his 4.50 ERA may indicate. He's a sinkerball pitcher. So I don't anticipate the Red Sox beating him with the long ball. 

Ron Kulpa is slated to be the home plate umpire. He has a good Under reputation that is backed by the Under going 28-20 (58 percent) the past four years when he's been behind the plate.
