00:03It's high scoring games so far this week in Boston between the Red Sox and the Mariners.
00:08A little bit later in the afternoon, but still afternoon baseball.
00:12Seattle, the road favorite at minus 116.
00:14The total nine and a half, 21 total runs.
00:17The Red Sox winning 14 to seven on Monday, 16 total combined runs yesterday.
00:23Seattle taking game two, 10 to six.
00:25Does the offense continue in this Boston battle?
00:29I mean, George Kirby, 1.88 ERA over the past 60 days.
00:32That should tell you the tale here is analytical numbers.
00:34Fantastic as well.
00:35Take a look at some of these others.
00:37123 batters he's faced over the past month.
00:39ISO power number 043.
00:41Weighted on base percentage 245.
00:43Now something has to give here.
00:44I just told you how good Kirby's been against anybody he's facing.
00:47But the one thing that we do know that the Boston Red Sox love to hit,
00:50that's right-handed pitching.
00:52Duran, Abreu, Yoshida, Devers, O'Neal, Smith, all sky-high ISO power numbers
00:57and weighted on base percentages here.
00:59But here now we're taking a look at Seattle.
01:00So many times we line up that roster one through nine in the past couple weeks.
01:04But you know what?
01:04I don't care who the pitcher is.
01:05They can't hit.
01:06The better pitcher by far on the mound today is with the Mariners.
01:09Baio is going to be on the mound for the Red Sox, a right-handed pitcher.
01:12Average stats over the past 30 days.
01:14But take a look at this now.
01:15Randy Rosarena, 182 ISO power number.
01:18Cal Raleigh, 210.
01:19Polanco, 216.
01:20Moore, 176.
01:22Vosler, 176.
01:23Hannegar, 292.
01:24You're actually getting decent lineups now
01:26with the addition of some more power bats in that lineup.
01:29I'm going to go ahead and take the Mariners again day number two
01:31against the Boston Red Sox.
