One day after beating back Toronto’s not-ready-for-prime time squad, the Red Sox will face the Minnesota Twins (or a split-squad version of them) for what feels like the 45th time this spring. The Red Sox lead the “chase” for the Mayor’s Cup at 3 games to 1, but the teams have actually played five times, as they were rained out last week in what was sure to have been a Twins win. Oh well!
Rick Porcello pitches for Boston. Watch this game instead of Tomb Raider (it’s not great!). This is the gamethread. Here is the lineup:
- Mookie Betts, RF
- Andrew Benintendi, CF
- Hanley Ramirez, DH
- J.D. Martinez, LF
- Mitch Moreland, 1B
- Rafael Devers, 3B
- Brock Holt, 2B
- Blake Swihart, C
- Deven Marrero, SS
