After taking Game 1 Saturday night, the Red Sox look to complete a two-game sweep against the Phillies on Sunday in Philadelphia.
Boston will sit Mookie Betts, who was a late scratch in the series opener due to a sore left foot, in Game 2, as J.D. Martinez takes right field for the second consecutive outing. Andrew Benintendi takes center field with Jackie Bradley Jr. beginning on the bench. Sam Travis gets the start in left field, with Chris Owings fielding second base.
Christian Vazquez will catch Rick Porcello, while the Phillies send left-hander Jason Vargas to the hill.
