On the mound for the Red Sox is David Price. Price missed his last start due to taking a hard line drive off his wrist. The Red Sox are 9-0 in Price’s last 9 starts. On the mound for Astros is Gerrit Cole who has already defeated the Red Sox earlier this season, and has had a very nice first season in Houston. Cole is 13-5 with a 2.86 ERA.
