MLB Playoffs 2018: Live-Stream Guide, TV Schedule, Times and Odds
The Boston Red Sox are clearly comfortable playing on the road.
After recording a 51-30 mark away from Fenway Park during the regular season, the Red Sox went 2-0 in the American League Division Series at Yankee Stadium to clinch that series. They bludgeoned the Bronx Bombers in one game and hung on for a close victory in the other, so the 108-win team should be confident it can play in the noise cauldron that is Minute Maid Park in the American League Championship Series.
However, it will not be easy. The Houston Astros have dominated postseason baseball at home, recording a 10-1 mark since the start of last October when they faced the Red Sox, Yankees, Dodgers and Indians (this year's ALDS).

10 Scorching MLB Takes 🌶️

Yankees Call Up 6'7" Prospect 📈
The Astros will send left-hander Dallas Keuchel to the mound to subdue Mookie Betts, J.D. Martinez, Xander Bogaerts and Andrew Benintendi. Betts had two doubles in Boston's Game 2 victory, while the Red Sox are hoping that Martinez can show off some of his power that allowed him to hit 43 home runs and drive in 130 runs this season. Martinez homered in his first postseason at-bat in the ALDS, but he has not hit a long ball since.
Boston will start hard-throwing Nathan Eovaldi, and the former Tampa Bay Ray hopes to emulate his Game 3 performance against the Yankees. Eovaldi dominated that strike zone in New York, pitched seven innings, gave up five hits, one run, struck out five and did not walk a batter.
The right-hander is going to attempt to hold down Alex Bregman, George Springer, Yuli Gurriel and Jose Altuve. Bregman, one of the game's best clutch hitters, is 0-for-3 in the series against the Red Sox with six walks.
Eovaldi allowed four solo home runs when he pitched against the Astros on June 20 with the Rays, but he is throwing more cutters now.
"I definitely feel it's gotten the hitters off my fastball and then it's allowed me to get some earlier contact and go deeper into the games and not have to be so perfect with my fastball," Eovaldi said, per Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe. "And I'm able to mix in other pitches along with that and kind of go from there."
The Red Sox and the Astros will meet at 5:09 p.m. Tuesday, and the game will be televised by TBS. It can be live-streamed at MLB.TV.
The Astros are minus-135 favorites to win Game 3, while the Red Sox are plus-115 underdogs, per OddsShark (an Astros bettor would have to wager $135 to earn a $100 profit, while a Red Sox backer would risk $100 to win $115).

National League Championship Series
The Dodgers find themselves in a 2-1 deficit in the NLCS against the Milwaukee Brewers after losing 4-0 at home Monday.
The two teams will meet Tuesday night at 9:09 p.m. ET in Game 4 at Dodger Stadium; that game will be televised by FS1 and can be live-streamed at MLB.TV.
The Dodgers will attempt to square the series with Rich Hill getting the start, while the Brewers will open with Gio Gonzalez and likely use a parade of relievers throughout the game.
Milwaukee starter Jhoulys Chacin pitched 5.1 innings Monday night and earned the victory, and four Brewers relievers followed in shutting out the Dodgers.
Jeremy Jeffress loaded the bases in the ninth inning, but he got out of trouble and ended the game by striking out Brian Dozier.
Milwaukee manager Craig Counsell used razor-sharp Josh Hader to record two outs in the eighth inning before he gave way to Jeffers. Since Hader threw just eight pitches in the game, Counsell is not likely to hesitate to call on Hader at a key moment in Game 4.
The Dodgers are minus-160 favorites to win Game 4, while the Brewers are plus-135 underdogs.
