MLB *BASES BLOWOUT*

The Boston Red Sox are without a doubt the best team in baseball at the moment, and I expect them to deliver the goods once again here Saturday night.

Left-hander Chris Sale (1-0, 1.23 ERA) will take the ball for Boston. Heo has allowed one run or fewer in each of his four starts this season while recording 31 Ks through 22 innings of work. Sale has made 13 career appearances (eight starts) against Oakland with a 2.60 ERA and has the current roster limited to a .224 AVG over 58 at bats.

Oakland turns to Sean Manaea (2-2, 1.63 ERA) who is off to a fast start this season, but note that the souhtpaw was lit up for seven runs in 3 â…” innings of work here at Fenway Park last season. Current Red Sox are batting a combined .392 against him.

Red Sox are 6-2 in their last 8 road games vs. a left-handed starter. Athletics are 0-4 in their last 4 home games vs. a left-handed starter.

8* play on Boston Red Sox.
