Martinez against his former team


Tonight American League predictions, written by Olivier:
*number 1 indicates road team win, number two home team win with respective pecentage to win the match.

Red Sox (Matsuzaka) @ Indians (Carmona) 2 55%
Since falling behind the Indians 3-1 in the 2007 AL championship series,
the Red Sox have won 15 of 18 against Cleveland. Carmona has lost three straight starts, but has made positive strides this season. Carmona against the Red Sox at home is 1-0 with a 1.23 ERA in two starts. Boston will have Matsuzaka on the mound. The enigmatic right-hander gave up three runs in the first inning Wednesday against Oakland, but settled down to complete 6 2/3 innings in a 6-4 win.

Mariners (Lee) @ Rangers (Feldman) 2 55%
Lee tries to shake off a history of bad outings in Texas and help the Mariners snap a three-game losing streak. His 9.19 ERA at Rangers Ballpark is by far his worst in any stadium where he's made more than one start. Feldman is 3-1 with a 2.67 ERA in 16 appearances (seven starts) against Seattle. Texas is looking for a fifth straight win over the Mariners, who are 1-5 against the Rangers.

Angels (Kazmir) @ Athletics (Sheets) 1 60%
The Angels have won five straight games overall and five in a row at the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum, and that's where starter Scott Kazmir is enjoying a 14-inning scoreless streak. Kazmir is 5-2 with a 1.99 ERA in his last seven starts at the Coliseum, and his 2.66 ERA there is his second-lowest ERA at any current ballpark. Ben Sheets takes the ball for Oakland. The right-hander is 2-1 with a 2.50 ERA in six home starts this year.
