The Boston Red Sox scored double-digit runs against the New York Yankees on Tuesday, so they’re trotting out the same lineup Wednesday to try to do it again.
However, Rusney Castillo is notably absent from the lineup for a third straight game as he rests a strained right quad. Still, the Red Sox have taken the first two games of the four-game series, including Tuesday’s 10-4 win.
Wade Miley will start for the Boston, and he’ll be looking to end his season on a high note. The left-hander has struggled against the Yankees this season, going 0-2 with a 5.60 ERA in three starts.
