Red Sox visit the Athletics to begin 3-game series

Garrett Crochet aims to recover from a tough outing as he faces Luis Morales, who boasts a 1.59 ERA and 30 strikeouts in 28 1/3 innings this season.

  • On Monday, the Athletics host the Boston Red Sox in West Sacramento, California, for a three-game series opener at 10:05 p.m. EDT, with pitchers Garrett Crochet and Luis Morales starting, matching Crochet's recent form with Morales' three-0 mark.
  • With playoff implications in view, the Boston Red Sox hold the second wild-card spot 3 1/2 games back in the American League East, while the Oakland Athletics sit fifth in the American League West.
  • Offensively, Boston leans on infielder Jacob Wilson, who is 14 for 40 with seven RBIs over 10 games, while outfielder Roman Anthony has shown recent multi-game hot stretches.
  • Scoring will be decisive since Boston Red Sox offensive performances and Oakland Athletics offensive performances both excel when scoring five or more runs, making runs key to the series outcome.
  • With emerging arms and building-block players, right-hander Luis Morales has allowed 17 hits with 30 strikeouts in 28 1/3 innings, while catcher/position player Soderstrom, 23, has had a consistent year and pitcher Garrett Crochet's 178 1/3 innings raise workload discussion.
