The Red Sox and Braves face off at 1:05 p.m. when Matt Andriese takes the mound at JetBlue Park in Fort Myers, Florida. Unfortuntaley there is no TV broadcast for this one.
Andriese, a former Ray, will be opposed by Atlanta’s Max Fried, who has an 80-grade stoner name to go along with his 65-grade curveball. Fried, a lefty, will face a lineup including both Alex Verdugo and Jarren Duran, a first for March, as the Sox outfielders and third baseman Rafael Devers get to practice their hitting against southpaws again before the real games start.
