BOS at DET
*2- BOS
*0- Over
Coming off of Wednesday's 7-3 win, Detroit should be due for a let down here in game 5. They were able to get to Peavy early on thanks to 3 walks in an inning and a costly miscue by Pedroia. Well, that and the fact that Peavy is terrible. It will be a completely different story Thursday against Lackey. Lackey has been nothing short of amazing this postseason. He has posted a 1.93 ERA and a .93 whip in 14 innings thus far. He should be able to keep Detroit's hitters off balance enough to get the win. On the other side, Anibal Sanchez will get the start for the Tigers. He pitched incredible in his first outing of the series, going 6 no hit innings with 12 K's. However, I would not expect the same result this next time out. Boston hitters seem to be figuring it out, and it is only a matter of time before they explode. Also, lets not overlook the fact that Sanchez failed to even make it 5 innings against Oakland, giving up 5 runs in the effort and drawing the loss. All considered, Boston should be able to get the win here in game 5.
Prediction: Bos, 5 at Detroit, 3
