The Red Sox (65-29) look for their 11th straight win when they host the Blue Jays (42-50) tonight at Fenway Park (7:10 p.m., NESN). The pitching matchup is Rick Porcello (11-3, 3.58 ERA) against Ryan Borucki (0-1, 2.25 ERA). Andrew Benintendi sits this one out on the bereavement list, and bestie Brock Holt moves up in the second spot. That’s about it, and we’re behind schedule here, so you go:
