The Boston Red Sox have played 11 of their last 13 games to the Under and have been doing so without a heck of a lot of starting pitching.

But Tuesday’s starter, Nathan Eovaldi, has been getting extended with his innings. Over his last four starts, he has posted a 3.86 ERA and struck out 11 batters per nine innings. He is backed up by a bullpen that ranks in the top five in the MLB in ERA since the beginning of August.

San Francisco will counter Eovaldi with Logan Webb, who has been up and down this season, but is backed up by a relief corps that ranks sixth in the majors in bullpen ERA for the season.

Webb is coming off two less-than-stellar starts in which he gave up a combined 11 earned runs in 7¹/₃ innings, but the stuff is there. He has issued 2.8 walks and 1.2 home runs per nine innings since being called up, along with just under nine strikeouts per nine innings.

With the Giants scoring the fewest runs per game of any team in baseball during September and the Red Sox being second worst in that category in the AL this month, this is a solid spot to bet on a low-scoring affair.

The play: Giants-Red Sox, Under 10 ¹/₂.
