The final series before the All-Star Break is a three-game set between the Red Sox (47-43, T-3rd AL East) and Yankees (62-27, 1st AL East) at Yankee Stadium (7:05 p.m. ET, NESN, Amazon Prime). The hangover was real from last weekend’s series for both of these teams, as the Red Sox were swept in a four-game series in Tampa. Meanwhile, the Yankees lost two out of three at home against the last-place Cincinnati Reds, with both teams enduring multiple late-game bullpen meltdowns in their respective series.
For Boston, right-hander Nathan Eovaldi returns from a back injury to make his first start since June 8th.
