The Red Sox will have Sandy Leon behind the plate for the afternoon game following a night game, with the switch in catchers representing the only change to Boston's lineup Saturday.
It may be one of the final appearances for Sandy Leon in this stint with the Red Sox. The backup backstop is likely going to be the odd man out when Ryan Hanigan finishes up his rehab stint. With Blake Swihart putting together a solid performance in June, it no longer looks like he needs to be shuffled back to the minors for more seasoning. If he's perhaps still in the transitional phase between being a Triple-A player and a full-fledged Major Leaguer, he's at least proving that more time in the majors is only helping him progress towards the player the Red Sox expect he can be.
Wade Miley will be taking the mound looking to bring his ERA under 4.50 for the first time since it spiked in his second start of the season. Since the start of May, though, Miley has looked like a different pitcher, maintaining an ERA of 3.47, throwing 62 innings in his 10 starts. It's been slow going for Rick Porcello to get back on track, but at least Wade Miley is showing signs of why the Red Sox went out to get him.
First pitch is at 4:10 p.m. ET with broadcasts on NESN and WEEI.
