Mandatory Credit: Eric Canha-Imagn Images The host Boston Red Sox and Baltimore Orioles will play a doubleheader Saturday, rather than Friday, after an extended period of rain affected the area.
The teams were slated for a four-game series beginning Thursday, but the opener was washed out and a doubleheader was scheduled for Friday. The Red Sox trounced the Orioles 19-5 in Game 1 of a split doubleheader.
Due to the additional rain, the plans changed again. Baltimore and Boston will face off at 1:05 and 6:35 p.m. in a split doubleheader Saturday.
Pitching plans for Saturday were not yet known. The Red Sox were going to start right-hander Lucas Giolito (1-1, 7.08 ERA) in Friday's nightcap, while Baltimore hadn't committed to a starter.
Rafael Devers had two home runs and a career-high eight RBIs in Friday's win, in which Boston scored 13 runs in the eighth inning.
