Weather permitting, the Boston Red Sox will have a chance to earn another series victory against the struggling Toronto Blue Jays.
The two American League East squads are scheduled to square off at Fenway Park in the final game of their three-game series Wednesday night at 7:10 p.m. ET, which probably won’t seem like a lot of time between matchups after the teams’ 19-inning marathon the previous night.
The Sox will have Rafael Devers, who started the first two games against the Blue Jays on the bench, back at third base and batting seventh, while Eduardo Nunez and Dustin Pedroia will shift to second base and designated hitter, respectively. Mitch Moreland will man first base and bat fifth, while Sandy Leon will be behind the plate catching right-hander Doug Fister.
