Kutter Crawford will oppose Cole Ragans in Wednesday’s pitching matchup at Kauffman Stadium. With the Royals listed as a favorite and the total sitting at 8.5 runs, what is the smart play tonight from Kansas City?

Red Sox vs. Royals MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Take the Under in the first five innings. Cole Ragans has had a very nice season for Kansas City, with a 3.36 ERA and a WHIP of 1.14 and 159 strikeouts. On the other side, Kutter Crawford has also had a nice year for Boston with a 3.81 ERA and WHIP of 1.09. After a bunch of runs in the first two games of this series, I don’t expect that to be the case tonight.
