The big righty will make his second start in a Red Sox uniform tonight, weather permitting.
A pair of veterans who have started over 450 career MLB games combined are set to face off at Fenway tonight if and when the rain stops.
Currently a very heavy batch of rain is pushing through Boston, but a dry slot between spokes of the upper level low is emerging south of Rhode Island, and the odds of getting tonight’s game in at some point appear to be increasing.
It looks increasing likely that the Red Sox are going to get this game in. More rain will move through Boston over the next couple of hours thanks to the batch currently over RI, but the pocket that matters for game time is south of Long Island, and that looks like a window. pic.twitter.com/LXTgZA2Q4e

Overall the Sox will be trying to reverse a trend where they leave winnable games on the table. They’re now 4-9 overall in one run games and have seen their win expectancy peak at over 75% in seven of their last twelve losses.
Hopefully their fortunes and the skies over Fenway will brighten soon.
First Pitch: Scheduled for 6:45 p.m. EDT, but will be delayed because of weather.
