In additional, here is the Run Line, Money Line, and Runs O/U for the 2018 World Series Game 3 from Bovada*2(Link to Bovada Referal Page):
2018 World Series Game 3 Run Line
- Boston Red Sox RHP Rick Porcello +1.5 (-155)
- Los Angeles Dodgers RHP Walker Buehler -1.5 (+135)
2018 World Series Game 3 Money Line

- Los Angeles Dodgers Win (-155)
2018 World Series Game 3 Runs Total Over/Under

- Under 5 (-110)
To avoid going falling to 0-3 in the series, the Dodgers will hand the ball to Rookie RHP Walker Buehler to try and shut down the Red Sox vaunted batting lineup.
Buehler had been phenomenal in his first full major league baseball season, posting a 2.62 ERA in 24 games but has struggled so far in the postseason with a 5.40 ERA in three starts.
Red Sex RHP Rick Porcello has been a mirror image of his regular season self in the postseason, posting a 4.28 ERA in 33 games in the regular season and a 4.22 ERA in 2 starts and 2 relief appearances in the postseason.
Both teams will likely make some adjustments to their lineups, adding in more left-handed batters to take advantage of the right-hand pitchers.
Finally, here is how both teams have fared in 2018 as the underdog and the favorite for the Run Line to assist with baseball betting:
2018 Boston Red Sox Run Line Record as the Underdog
- Underdog: 24-11
2018 Los Angeles Dodgers Run Line Record as the Favorite
