A line drive that isn’t caught, well-struck balls that don’t fall, a couple pitches that are hit make for a different kind of night.

The Rays (-110 moneyline odds to win) and the Red Sox (-109) will square off in an expected tight matchup. The starting pitchers are Shane Baz (5-3) for the Tampa Bay Rays, and Brayan Bello (2-1) for the Boston Red Sox.
