The Boston Red Sox and Baltimore Orioles will wrap up their season-opening three-game series Sunday afternoon at Fenway Park.
The two squads split the first two games, with the Red Sox blowing out the Orioles Friday night and Baltimore returning the favor Saturday afternoon. Boston will send right-hander Ryan Weber to the hill for the series finale, while the Orioles will counter with lefty Wade LeBlanc.
