Friday's MLB play

Play: Milwaukee/Boston over 8.5 -110 (action vs. action)

Time: 2:05 p.m. ET

Reasoning: Two powerful offenses will square off in a hitters' ballyard, Fenway Park, and they will see each others fourth starter. Really, you could make the case that each guy (Marco Estrada and Jake Peavy) is a fifth starter. The Brewers have six players capable of hitting 20 or more home runs. And though they've been shut down through three games, I like them to get well against Peavy, who had a 4.17 ERA in 2013. Peavy hasn't had much success since leaving the Padres in 2009. The Red Sox always hit well at home. Pitching at Fenway is different and this will be Estrada's first go-around. Estrada is 1-5 with a 5.84 ERA in interleague play. The Brewers have allowed four homers so far.


Record: 38-24-3 (61.3%)
