Boston Red Sox Announce Starting Pitcher Against Baltimore Orioles

After dropping three of four to the New York Yankees and then losing two of three at home to the Seattle Mariners, the banged-up Boston Red Sox open a four-game road series against the Baltimore Orioles. Boston will lean on top starters across the weekend as it tries to reverse momentum. The Orioles enter also under pressure, trailing the Cleveland Guardians by 1.5 games for the final AL wild-card spot and needing at least three wins in four to keep playoff hopes alive. Pitching matchups are set: Thursday Jake Bennett vs. Brandon Young (7:15 p.m.), Friday Ranger Suárez vs. Shane Baz (7:05 p.m.), Saturday Sonny Gray vs. Chris Bassitt (7:05 p.m.), and Sunday Payton Tolle vs. Kyle Bradish (1:35 p.m.).
