Red Sox 0, Blue Jays 1: You can’t make this up

In the first of two seven-inning games in today’s doubleheader, Boston turned to right-handed starter Nick Pivetta, who allowed three runs on three hits over 4 2⁄3 innings pitched against the first-place Rays in his last outing. Pivetta took the mound in a face off against left-hander Robbie Ray.
