The second half of the 2021 Major League Baseball season officially kicks off Thursday night.
The Boston Red Sox have their hands full right out of the gate beginning Thursday as they travel to New York to take on the Yankees.
Boston will face the Yankees in eight of its first 11 games coming out of the mid-summer break with a three-game set with the Toronto Blue Jays breaking up two separate four-game series against New York.
For more on the Red Sox's road ahead, check out the spotlight video above from Wednesday night's "NESN After Hours," presented by Blue Moon Belgian White.
