Thirteen games fill Major League Baseball’s Friday schedule, but a few attract significant attention on the betting board.
All information presented is sourced from the Action Network PRO Report, which provides betting percentages and five “signals” – hot money, big money, PRO systems, model advantages and expert tips – to help differentiate specific games.
In today’s report, a page and two totals will trigger most of the above signals. So, without further ado, let’s dive into the choices.

Game #1 – Chicago White Sox vs. Boston Red Sox, 7:10 p.m. ET
The White Sox and Red Sox open a three-game series in Boston on Friday, and bettors expect runs at Fenway Park.
Over 8.5 runs costs +100, and we’ve tracked sharp actions coming in at that number. In addition, big money bettors also support the over. As of this writing, the over paired 58 percent of all bets with 77 percent of the total handle.
Finally, tonight, a top Action Network MLB betting expert is backing over 8.5 runs to put the factor of over a third in his favor.
PRO report selection: Over 8.5 runs (+100)
Game #2 – Milwaukee Brewers vs. Atlanta Braves, 7:20 p.m. ET
That total, like that in Boston, started with 8.5 runs, but the action went the other way.
We’ve seen big money bettors get behind the under in Atlanta tonight, which bettors can find on either 8.5 runs at -110 or eight runs at +100. In addition, there is a model projection with this sum. According to Action Network’s MLB Power Ratings, the total should be closer to 7.67 runs, giving bettors almost a full run on the previous number.
Finally, a top MLB expert from The Action Network is backing the under tonight to round out the three signals in his favor.
PRO report selection: Under 8.5 runs (-110) or Under 8 runs (+100)

Game #3 – St. Louis Cardinals at San Francisco Giants, 10:15 p.m. ET
This game represents the lonely side of the day, generating at least three signals as respected bettors have identified the Giants as worthy home favorites.
We’ve seen sharp action on the Giants’ moneyline, which opened at -125 and has fallen slightly to -124 on writing. Additionally, big money bettors are behind the Giants in a big way, as they saw 65 percent of all money line bets versus 83 percent of the total handling.
Finally, not one, but two Action Network MLB punters are betting on the Giants tonight to round out the three signals in their favor.
PRO report selection: San Francisco Giants Money Line (-124)
