Wednesday's Red Sox-Orioles lineups: Watch those inside pitches

Share

All eyes will be on inside pitches again tonight as the Red Sox and Orioles renew their increasingly heated rivalry tonight in Game 3 of their four-game series at Fenway Park.

Red Sox ace Chris Sale throwing behind Manny Machado in the Red Sox’ 5-2 victory Tuesday, and Machado’s epic postgame rant, was the latest flare-up. Who gets hit, or missed by a Sox pitcher, tonight?

FOX Sports’ Ken Rosenthal reports that MLB commissioner Rob Manfred and MLB chief baseball officer Joe Torre had a conference call today with Orioles and Red Sox brass to no doubt try and tamp down the hostilities. 

Dustin Pedroia is back in the leadoff spot after hitting sixth for a few games. Xander Bogaerts moves from leadoff to fifth and Jackie Bradley Jr. has the night off, moving Andrew Benintendi to center field. 

Lefty Drew Pomeranz (2-1, 4.15 ERA) pitches for the Red Sox. Right-hander Kevin Gausman (1-2, 7.50) is on the mound for the Orioles.
