Believe it or not, there's been a total cosmetic change in Major League Baseball when it comes to who should be beating who. But the fifth-place American League East Boston Red Sox are looking to avoid the series sweep against National League East division leading Washington Nationals Sunday in this interleague series.
The Sox are going to have to face Jordan Zimmermann (3-5, 2.82 ERA), who along with Stephen Strasburg and Gio Gonzalez, just may be apart of the best pitching staff in baseball. There was a time (and not too long ago) when that could be said about Boston.
Either way, Jon Lester (3-4, 4.64 ERA) is going to have to do his part as well Sunday. Take a look here at the game schedule and broadcast information:
Date/Time: Sunday, June 10, 1:35 p.m. ET
Location: Fenway Park
TV: MASN, NESN
Online streaming: MLB.tv
