Red Sox Vs. Athletics Lineups: Jarren Duran Leads Off Bullpen Game
The Boston Red Sox continue their six-game road trip with a stop in Oakland to open a three-game series against the Athletics on Monday night.
Boston has won four straight series to begin July after taking two-of-three games in Chicago against the Cubs over the weekend. Oakland continues to struggle after being swept by the Minnesota Twins in their first series after the All-Star break.
The Red Sox will start Brennan Bernardino for Monday’s expected bullpen game while Oakland sends Paul Blackburn to the mound.
Rafael Devers gets the night off after a big series in Chicago with three home runs. Justin Turner plays third base and bats third.
