Pomeranz Making Red Sox Debut vs Giants
The Boston Red Sox spent the first half of the season worrying about their starting pitching rotation, but things look just fine as the season reaches late July. Next up on the docket for the BoSox is a home date with the San Francisco Giants on Wednesday.
Matt Cain and Drew Pomeranz are slated to get the start. Cain (1-5, 5.34 ERA) has been out for two months with a hamstring injury that he suffered on May 27. The veteran was hammered for nine runs on 10 hits over four innings in his last minor league rehab start on Friday.
Pomeranz (8-7, 2.47) made the National League All-Star team for San Diego before getting dealt to the Sox. Pomeranz dominated in his final three outings before the break, allowing a total of one run and 10 hits in 21 innings.
The Sox have been a great source of UNDERs lately. The UNDER is 6-0 in Boston's last six tilts.
