Overview

  • Walker Buehler has not recorded a win since May 20 and enters the finale with a 5.18 ERA in search of a breakthrough.
  • Zack Littell brings a 6-0 record and a 2.79 ERA over his last eight starts as he aims to extend his unbeaten streak.
  • The Red Sox look to build on Tuesday’s 3-1 win that featured Lucas Giolito’s six-inning, three-hit outing and Roman Anthony’s two-run double for his first major league hit.
  • Tampa Bay has held opponents to three earned runs or fewer in 16 of its last 18 games, highlighting its depth of pitching.
