00:00Arizona continues its road trip in Fenway this weekend. The Diamondbacks have been one of the
00:09best around the major leagues since the all-star break, 23-8, 14-5 in the month of August. The
00:19Red Sox did win its series against the Houston Astros earlier this week. We see how this one
00:27goes. Minus 134. Boston, a home favorite tonight against the red-hot Arizona Diamondbacks. Nine
00:34and a half is the total. What do you like tonight in Fenway? Yeah, it could be hammer time tonight
00:39on both sides here because you take a look at, let's just say, Beyo's on the mound, struggles
00:43against left-handed batters. That's not something when you do against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
00:46You take a look at Nelson. He actually has decent statistics, but let's start with the batters here.
00:51Nelson on the mound is a right-handed pitcher. Look what the Boston Red Sox have done over the
00:55past 30 days against right-handed pitching. Look at the first six guys in that lineup. I'm just
00:58going to use ISO power numbers. Duran, 320. Abreu, 323. Casas, 231. Devers, 262. O'Neal, 333. Yoshida,
01:06277. And all of those guys have high weighted on base percentages. Let's get back to the other
01:11side with Beyo on the mound. Look at these. I mean, this is incredible stuff. Remove Pavin Smith,
01:17who only has 10 at-bats against right-handed pitching over the past month. Carroll, 357 ISO.
01:22McCarthy, 310 ISO. Peterson, 490 ISO. Bell, 429 ISO. Del Castillo, 370 ISO. Suarez, 319. Perdomo,
01:30203. So I don't even want to take the pitchers out of the equation and just say,
01:35both of these lineups are going to get after it tonight, and we should be looking, Ben,
01:39at double digit runs here. We should be.
