ESPN’s “Sunday Night Baseball” features the Recent York Yankees for the second week in a row.
Last Sunday, the Yankees defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers in a matchup of World Series hopefuls.
This week, the Bombers renew their rivalry with the Boston Red Sox.
On the mound for the Yankees will probably be Clarke Schmidt (2-6, 4.96 ERA).
Schmidt is just 2-6, but he actually has pitched well in six of his past seven starts.
In those six outings, Schmidt has allowed three runs or less, however the Yankees are only 3-3 in those games.
The issue for Schmidt has been run support.
The Yankees have scored a complete of three runs in his past three starts.
The Red Sox counter with Brayan Bello (3-4, 3.97 ERA).
Like Schmidt, Bello has pitched higher than his record this season, allowing three runs or fewer in seven of nine starts.
In his past three starts, Bello gave up a decent six runs over 17 innings, with 15 strikeouts and just three walks, but Boston lost all three games.
