Scott Podsednik will be inserted into Boston's lineup for the rubber game. He'll get the start in center field and bat ninth. He'll be joined in the outfield by Daniel Nava (left field) and Adrian Gonzalez (right field).
Will Middlebrooks and Kevin Youkilis will both be in Bobby Valentine's starting lineup again, playing third base and first base, respectively. Youkilis will bat cleanup, while Middlebrooks will take his cuts out of the No. 7 spot in the order.
Clay Buchholz and Jeremy Hellickson will be the two hurlers for Sunday's game. The pair squared off back on May 16, with Hellickson's Rays coming away with a 2-1 victory in a well-pitched game.
The Red Sox have won 11 of their last 15 dating back to May 11, which has them tied with the Dodgers (also 11-4) for the best win percentage in the majors since that date.
