Game 56: Red Sox (31-24) @ Orioles (15-39)

By Randy Booth

One word: sweep. Three words: don't get swept.

The Red Sox have a surprisingly big three-game series with the Orioles starting tonight. Why's it big? Because the last time these two teams played the Sox were swept. Not fun.

Clay Buchholz is on the mound for Boston:

The O's send out Chris Tillman:
