Where can you watch or listen to the Boston Red Sox take on the Detroit Tigers? We’ve got you covered with all the info you need.
Following as successful rain-shortened homestand to open the season, the Boston Red Sox set out on their first road trip to visit the Detroit Tigers for the start of a four-game set.
Thursday’s postponement has allowed the Red Sox to rearrange their rotation. Knuckleballer Steven Wright will take the mound this afternoon to open the series, bumping Eduardo Rodriguez back a day. The switch allows the staff to alternate their right-handed pitchers with lefties, as Rick Porcello will follow on Sunday and Chris Sale will finish off the series on Monday.
Boston was also forced to shake up the lineup, with several players missing due to illness or bereavement. No Mookie Betts, Xander Bogaerts or Hanley Ramirez today. Here’s what the batting order will look like for the Red Sox this afternoon.
