1u – BlueJays/RedSox No Runs 2nd Inning / u6.5 First 5 Inning Alt Total (-132 @ Fanduel)

We have a beautiful pitching matchup here between Garrett Crochet and Bowden Francis. Crochet has already faced off against Toronto and had a scoreless first 5 innings against him before running into some trouble in the 6th. In that 2nd inning though, he had a quick and easy 1-2-3 inning. I expect him to continue his elite pitching and dominate these Blue Jays. On the flip side we have Bowden Francis, he has been incredibly sneaky good. Boston bats are 3-29 against him lifetime which is barely over a .100 average. He has been looking phenomenal this year and I think he should quiet these hot Red Sox bats. We need a scoreless 2nd inning and these teams not to combine for 7+ runs in the first 5 innings. Seems easy enough, lets do it!
