The Atlanta Braves will continue their road trip Tuesday when they begin a brief two-game series against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. Charlie Morton will get the start for Atlanta. The Red Sox haven’t announced their starter yet, but they are expected to go with a bullpen game.
Morton was tagged for six hits and four runs over 5 2/3 innings in his last start against the Diamondbacks. That snapped a stretch of six-straight starts where he had allowed three earned runs or less. Morton faced the Red Sox back on May 9 in Atlanta and pitched well allowing five hits and two runs over six innings of work.
