THE PLAY: BOS ML

The champs are starting to find their form a bit, and Chris Sale looks like a first round fantasy pick again. The Royals haven;t touched LHP all season, and I think they’re outmatched in all phases tonight. If the chalk bothers you, get a percentage of your wager on the -1.5 Run Line.
