However, their first rainout since 1995 forced them into a split doubleheader Monday evening.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63744&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>The first of two will take place at 5:05 PM ET, with the finale of the twin bill and series slated for 10:05 PM. The Red Sox will send out RH Steven Wright in the finale to oppose the Angels undefeated LH Andrew Heaney.<\/p>\n<h3>Boston Red Sox vs. Los Angeles Angels<\/h3>\n<p>The Red Sox offensive inconsistencies have been a major problem this year. They&#8217;ve been a roller coaster ride continuously and currently find themselves at the bottom of that coaster. Boston has been shutout in the first two games of this series and is averaging just 3.70 runs per road contest. The Red Sox are 0 for 9 through the first two games with RISP and have just 7 hits in the contests.<\/p>\n<p>They&#8217;ll try to give RH Steven Wright a bit of run support on Monday night.<\/p>\n<p>Wright will be making just his 5th start of the season and this will be his 1st since June 4. In 4 relief appearances, the RH has allowed 6 runs over 6.1 innings pitched.<\/p>\n<p>He did face the Angels once this year as he went 6.1 innings allowing just 2 runs.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=10&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>Angels OF Kole Calhoun got Wright for a double and 2 RBIs.<\/p>\n<p>The Angels recent streak of 13 of their last 16 has boosted them above the Astros into first place in the AL West. They&#8217;ve done this with home run derby participant Albert Pujols going just 3 for 25 over his last 6 games.<\/p>\n<p>Los Angeles will send out LH Andrew Heaney, who brings in a 3-0 record with an ERA of just 1.32. Heaney has posted a quality start in all 4 of his GS thus far.<\/p>\n<p>Heaney has seem to found his stride in Los Angeles as he struggled mightily in his rookie campaign for Miami. In 7 career outings, Heaney was 0-3 with an ERA of 5.83.<\/p>\n<p>The Angels have made their comeback in the AL West with their dominant home play, combined with their record against the AL West. <\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63745&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>Los Angels has identical 27-18 records both at home and against the AL West.<\/p>\n<h3>MLB Handicapping Trends:<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"more\">\n<li class=\"more\">Red Sox are 8-22 in their last 30 road games vs. a left-handed starter.<\/li>\n<li class=\"morecool\">Red Sox are 1-4 in their last 5 games vs. a left-handed starter.<\/li>\n<li class=\"morecool\">Angels are 20-8 in their last 28 during game 4 of a series.<\/li>\n<li class=\"morecool\">Angels are 5-2 in their last 7 games vs. a right-handed starter.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Free 4* MLB Pick: Los Angeles ML<\/h3>\n<p>The Angels are hot right now and are playing with a purpose.<\/p>\n<h3>Los Angeles 5, Boston 2<\/h3>\n<p>They continue to do enough offensively to win, while receiving stellar pitching performances.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll be providing 4* free MLB plays on the blog all season long, and check out our <a title=\"MLB Plays\" href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/sportscapping.php?premium_picks\/leg,mlb\/afc,AF23_15\" rel=\"nofollow\"><strong>EXPERTS for guaranteed premium MLB Baseball\u00a0plays<\/strong><\/a>!<\/p>\n<h3>Check out our\u00a0<a title=\"MLB Betting Odds\" href=\"https:\/\/capperspicks.sportsdirectinc.com\/odds\/mlb.aspx\" rel=\"nofollow\">Updated MLB\u00a0Betting Odds<\/a>.<\/h3>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=65348&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MLB Predictions: Red Sox vs Angels MLB betting action\u00a0sees the\u00a0Boston Red Sox taking on the\u00a0Los Angeles Angels on Monday July 20th at Angel Stadium in Los Angeles, California.
