Left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez aims for his ninth win as the Detroit Tigers face off against the Boston Red Sox in an online-only game. The Tigers will be relying on Rodriguez, who has a 4.01 ERA in his past six starts, to secure a victory. If he succeeds, Rodriguez will become the first player on the Tigers’ roster to reach nine wins since 2019.
Rodriguez previously spent six seasons with the Red Sox, and this will be his second start against his former team. In his first encounter with the Red Sox earlier this year, Rodriguez allowed seven runs, although only two were earned. Despite the outcome, he will look to make a strong impression this time around. The Red Sox lineup has evolved since Rodriguez’s departure, with only two starters from that game still with the team.
On the opposing side, right-hander Kutter Crawford will take the mound for the Red Sox. Crawford relies heavily on his cutter, which he throws 30.1% of the time. Known for his high fastball spin rate, Crawford previously faced the Tigers in April and held them to just one run over five innings.
Following this series finale, the Tigers will have a day off before facing the AL Central leaders, the Minnesota Twins, in a two-game series. The Red Sox, on the other hand, will enjoy a day off before heading to Washington to face the NL East cellar dwellers for three games.
