The Sox face a Cy Young contender with little margin for error.
Last night we were treated to a little bit of pennant chase magic . . . were also treated to a bullpen meltdown. Red Sox baseball!
Nick Pivetta, coming off one of those starts where he looks like one of the best pitchers in the world, gets the ball for the Sox. Unfortunately, the Tigers counter with someone who is actually one of the best pitchers in the world, Tarik Skubal.
Catch first pitch on NESN at 6:10 EDT. An hour later the Twins will host the Blue Jays while the Royals will visit the Astros.
Here’s the Tigers lineup, Sox lineup is forthcoming.
