The Red Sox can win the series over the Tigers with a win Sunday, and they’ll be getting a boost to the lineup for the finale.
Boston suffered a 2-1 loss Saturday at Comerica Park despite a solid outing from Nick Pivetta that could have been better minus a defensive miscue. The Red Sox’s offense was shut down by American League Cy Young candidate Tarik Skubal, but manager Alex Cora will have Masataka Yoshida to provide more firepower to the lineup with the designated hitter second in the order.
Rafael Devers will start at third base moving Romy González to second base and eighth in the order ahead of Nick Sogard who will start at second base over Ceddanne Rafaela. Tyler O’Neill also will get the day off with Wilyer Abreu starting at right field and batting seventh. Connor Wong will move to his more natural position at catcher for starting pitcher Cooper Criswell.
Boston on Sunday called up pitcher Chase Shugart and infielder Enmanuel Valdez before their matchup against Detroit.
First pitch for Red Sox-Tigers is scheduled at 1:40 p.m. ET, and you can catch full coverage on NESN after an hour of pregame.
