The Red Sox and Mets finish up their two-games series tonight at Fenway Park with Chris Sale on the mound for the good guys (7:10 p.m., NESN, ESPN out-of-market).
Sale didn’t look like CHRIS SALE the last time out, and he looks to get back into form after his second bout with COVID-19, with his final start currently lining up with the last day of the regular season. It would be nice to have Sale available as a starter or reliever in the wild card game—don’t much care which—and every win the red-hot Sox can put up between now and then makes a potential one-game affair that much more palatable.
