Price to start home opener after Thursday's rainout
The decision comes after the Indians and Red Sox were forced to push their scheduled Opening Day game on Monday to Tuesday due to near-freezing temperatures and precipitation. Cleveland lost, 6-2, to Boston on Tuesday in the cold and then picked up a 7-6 victory in windy and rainy conditions on Wednesday night.
Red Sox manager John Farrell told reporters that Aug. 15 -- a mutual off-day for both teams -- has been discussed as a potential makeup date.
