Fenway Park often sees offensive fireworks, and that reputation could hold again on August 5th. Boston’s Jarren Duran has eclipsed 1.5 total bases in five of his past seven home appearances, causing headaches for visiting pitchers. Across the diamond, Kansas City’s Bobby Witt Jr. keeps stacking up multi-base games away from home—six times out of eight lately. The mound duel features a Royals starter who’ll need to rack up strikeouts if KC hopes to keep pace in this MLB same game parlay.

The selections merge hot hitting with punchout potential for balanced exposure across key statistical categories. Both Duran and Witt have shown they can produce extra-base hits at home or on the go, creating upward momentum in run environments like Fenway Park. Backing Bergert's strikeout line offers upside against aggressive bats looking for early-count damage.

Pick 1: Player Bases – Bobby Witt Jr. Over 1.5 – -105

Bobby Witt Jr.'s ability to generate multiple bases in hostile parks stands out lately for bettors seeking value props. He tallied more than one base six times within his last eight away trips—a notable trend given Fenway's hitter-friendly dimensions and deep alleys favoring quick players like him running gaps or stretching singles into doubles frequently.

Pick 2: Player Hits – Jarren Duran Over 1.5 – +210

Jarren Duran thrives under Boston’s lights as reflected by surpassing this mark five occasions over his previous seven outings at Fenway Park alone. When given favorable matchups versus right-handed pitching he finds ways aboard via well-placed drives; an environment primed once more considering Kansas City's starting pitcher profile entering Monday evening.

Pick 3: Player Strikeouts – Ryan Bergert Over 4.5 – +179

Ryan Bergert draws attention here as Brayan Bello has cleared this threshold repeatedly during prior Red Sox homestands—a signal about what type of opposing attack succeeds locally. As hitters hunt extra-bases early against softer arms elsewhere in MLB action today too expect plenty of swings-and-misses making elevated K totals plausible even when hard-hit balls are common.
