Red Sox Vs. Yankees Lineups: Rivals Square Off In Regular Season Finale

The Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees conclude the 2018 regular season Sunday afternoon at Fenway Park.

Both teams have secured a spot in the Major League Baseball playoffs, but Sunday’s game still is important because these clubs want to enter the postseason firing on all cylinders.

Rick Porcello will conclude a solid regular season campaign with his fourth start against the Yankees. He’s 2-0 with a 2.53 ERA versus the Bronx Bombers this year.

Porcello will be opposed by Luis Cessa, who has not fared well against the Sox in 2018. He’s given up five earned runs and seven hits over 4 2/3 innings in two outings versus Boston.

Mookie Betts and Xander Bogaerts will return to the Red Sox’s lineup after both got a day off Saturday.
