Texas Rangers (32-26) @ Boston Red Sox (34-23)
GAME: 7:05 PM EDT at Fenway Park
TV: NESN
Radio: WEEI 850
RESULT OF PRIOR GAME
Red Sox 0, Rangers 6 – called after 5 1/2 innings due to rain (W: Kameron Loe, L: Matt Clement)
Sox Star of the Game: Kevin Youkilis, 2-3, 2B
Game Notes: After too long on the road, the Sox return to Fenway for a four-game series over three days, which will feature the major league debut of prized pitching prospect Jon Lester (expect a scouting report on Lester from me Saturday). Tonight’s contest will pit Vincente Padilla against knuckleballer Tim Wakefield. In his last start against the Rangers, on the second day of the season, Wake got bombed; he looks to rebound from that and continue his solid pitching of late.
