The Boston Red Sox do not need Patrick Sandoval to be perfect Wednesday afternoon. They desperately need him to prevent the game from being decided before the middle innings.
Boston will send Sandoval to the mound for its series finale against the Seattle Mariners at Fenway Park after rookie Jedixson Paez allowed eight earned runs in Tuesday's 9-6 loss.
The defeat required the bullpen to cover 5 1/3 innings. It also dropped the Red Sox to 75-64, four games behind the New York Yankees for the top American League wild-card position.
Sandoval enters the start with a 1-3 record, 4.20 ERA, 48 strikeouts and a 1.71 WHIP.
