Before the last two games, the Red Sox actually had a little thing going on the road where they won 10 out of 13 away from Fenway Park. After loses to the Yankees and Rays on Sunday and Monday though, they need to win tonight to keep any chance of a winning road trip alive.
On the mound to help them do that is Payton Tolle, who is coming off an excellent outing of six shutout innings against Baltimore. He’ll face off against Nick Martinez, who somehow has a 2.29 ERA this year in his age 35 season for the Rays after spending the bulk of his baseball career bouncing around between teams, starting and reliving roles, and even continents (he pitched in ******* an for four years between 2018 and 2021).
If the Red Sox do manage to get a lead against him, they’ll have a little extra help in the late innings to hold things down as Garrett Whitlock is back in the bullpen:
Here’s today’s full lineups as we wait to see what new horrors this building has in store for us.
