Handicapper Spotlight — Scott’s Picks
Starter handicapper Scott’s Picks ran a perfect 3-0 yesterday for a $361 profit, and his model pins this matchup as ideal for a Red Sox moneyline play. He cites Dobbins’ success against left-handed bats and Rodón’s tougher road splits as key factors. Scott’s official ticket is available on the Scores and Stats MLB picks hub.
Red Sox Momentum
Friday’s triumph hinged on marginal gains: Garrett Crochet delivered six shutout innings at peak efficiency, and two overturned calls in the 10th inning snuffed out a late Yankees rally. Cora defended his decision to leave Crochet in for the ninth, saying, “He earned the chance—and Judge made him pay on one pitch.”
Yankees’ Response
Despite Aaron Judge’s 26th homer tying the game in the ninth, New York couldn’t overcome replay reversals and managerial ejections by Aaron Boone and DJ LeMahieu. Boone praised his team’s competitive fire but acknowledged that Boston’s acid-test experience in close games gave them the edge.
