The Red Sox can win their third straight game and push the Blue Jays to a whopping 11.5 games back of first place when they square off at Fenway tonight (7:10 p.m., NESN, MLBN out-of-network).
Garrett Richards gets the start for Boston, and I’m running out of ways to say that his pitching hasn’t been very good and that he needs to improve it immediately to avoid being deposed by Chris Sale. Robbie Ray is pitching for the Blue Jays, and I’ve noted here that he’s putting together a career year, which hasn’t changed since the last time I wrote it, last week.
