The Cleveland Guardians look to stay hot as the gun for their sixth straight win when they play the Boston Red Sox in Game 2 of their series on Wednesday at Progressive Field. The Guardian solidified their hold at the top of the American League Central Division with a 17-6 record following another clinical win over Boston, 4-1, in the season opener. The Red Sox slide to fourth place in the American League East after absorbing only their fourth road loss of the season. Red Sox right-hander Cooper Criswell (0-1, 4.26 ERA and 4 strikeouts) aim for a better showing on the mound after he was limited to just 2.1 innings in a 5-4 loss to the Guardians in the previous series. Criswell will be taking on the Guardians, who have been batting .257/.324/.411 with 128 runs this season. Guardians right-hander Carlos Carrasco (1-1, 3.44 ERA and 16 strikeouts) is scheduled for his fifth start this season. Carrasco will try to get another win over the Red Sox after allowing two runs and four hits with five strikeouts in a 5-4 win last April 18. Boston is hitting .227/.305/.392 with 104 runs this season.
