Red Sox vs. Yankees lineup: It’s on like Donkey Kong
The Red Sox (10-2) trot out Rick Porcello (2-0, 2.84 ERA) to face the Yankees (6-6) in the rubber match of a three-game set at Fenway Park that has serious potential for another brawl (7:10 p.m., NESN, MLBN out-of-market).
About tonight’s game: A day after dropping their first contest since Opening Day, Porcello looks to right the ship. He’ll be matched by Yankees right Sonny Gray (1-0, 3.60 ERA), but, of course, the starting pitchers are hardly the story. By that I mean... Andrew Benintendi is back and batting second, of course! No, it’s that Sandy Leon is back behind the plate. Or not. Is it that Tyler Austin is out of the Yankees’ lineup? I feel like I’m getting closer...
