The Red Sox are making their final push to get back into the postseason race, and while they are going to need plenty of help from the other wildcard contenders in the American League, they are doing their part of late. Boston has won seven of their last nine, which doesn’t include the walk-off win to finish off the suspended game on Thursday. They are looking to make it eight out of ten as well as a sweep out in San Diego in the final game in this three-game set against the Padres.
As they look for the sweep, they will be without Andrew Benintendi in this game.
