Tip and bets
At the end of September, the Boston Red Sox lost all three games of the series to the New York Yankees at home. The Yankees made 19 runs in three matches. The star pitcher Gerrit Cole played a big role in those victories, and today he will once again take to the pitch. The New Yorkers could not get into the playoffs directly, but they are in great form and have been delivering better results than the Red Sox lately.
We believe that the visitors have a better chance to get into the playoffs, and we suggest betting on their victory in the Wild Card game.
