The Boston Red Sox have won their last three meetings against the Miami Marlins. Will the streak continue for the Red Sox, who have lost four of their last five games.
The Red Sox and the Miami Marlins kick off their series opener on Friday at Fenway Park. Boston is fighting to stay in the AL East championship poker and wildcard race, while Miami is struggling to get to .500 and perhaps finish the season with a winning record.
The Red Sox are 1-4 in their last five games. At 66-56, they sit in second in the AL East, trailing the 71-51 Toronto Blue Jays by five games. Boston’s offense is in good shape, averaging 5.3 runs per game on a .251 BA. On the other hand, their pitching has had a rough week, giving a 4.71 ERA and 1.40 WHIP.
Like the Red Sox, the Marlins’ offense are producing solid numbers over the last five games, averaging 5.4 runs per game on a .247 BA. Unfortunately, pitching has been downright atrocious. They have posted a 7.02 ERA and allowed 2.0 home runs per game in the said stretch.

The Red Sox and the Marlins are averaging at least five runs per game in their last five assignments. In their last three meeting, these two teams have combined for an average of 10.33 runs per game. Both teams are dealing with pitching issues right now, especially the Marlins, who are giving up a 7.02 ERA in the last five.
The starters for this game are Lucas Giolito of the Red Sox and Sandy Alcantara of the Marlins, who are pitching above 4.00 ERA in their last five mound appearances. Usually, the recipe for a surefire high-scoring game is having two teams that are scoring well but doing miserably on the mound. That’s what the Marlins and the Red Sox are right now.
