The Red Sox are going for a three-game road sweep against the Rays today. I don't see them getting it.
Boston is 4-15 (21 percent) the past three seasons at Tropicana Field, including winning the first two games of this series.
The pitching matchup is Brayan Bello vs Ryan Pepiot.
Bello has a 3.96 ERA. He was just tagged for five runs on seven hits in 4 2/3 innings against the light-hitting Cardinals this past Friday. Bello surrendered three homers in that game. Bello is 1-3 with a 6.92 ERA in five career starts against the Rays.
I have more faith in Pepiot, who has a 3.68 ERA. He's backed by a deep Tampa Bay bullpen.
