May

Red Sox home vs road games: 18/9

While the Red Sox will be on the road much of April, the script will be flipped in May. Eighteen of their 27 games will be played in Fenway Park, including a stretch of 12 out of 15 games in the second half of the month. That total could even be increased, as the three-game set against the Orioles that was canceled in April could get made up when Baltimore returns in May.

That doesn’t mean that the month will be smooth sailing, however. 16 out of the 27 games this season will be against teams that finished over .500 last month, their second-highest monthly total of 2022. That total includes nine games against White Sox and Astros, the winners of the other two American League divisions.

Overall, though, May’s schedule shouldn’t be too tough. Having at least five games against the Orioles will help, as will three games each against the mediocre Angels and the still-rebuilding Rangers. Even though they play a number of games against competitive teams, many of them take place in the comforts of Fenway Park. Expect the Red Sox to have a good month.
