Team Analysis

Los Angeles Dodgers

The Dodgers enter this matchup with confidence, having gone 3-2 over their last five games. Their offensive rhythm, driven by Shohei Ohtani and Andy Pages, continues to generate high-leverage scoring chances. Despite a few players sidelined, their depth keeps the lineup dangerous from top to bottom.

They’ve also held their own on the road with a solid 26-22 record — an edge that could prove critical in a hostile Fenway environment. With recent form and matchup context on their side, the Dodgers look poised to deliver another strong performance.

  • Batting Average: 0.254
  • Total Runs Scored: 546
  • Home Runs: 157
  • OPS: 0.774
  • ERA: 4.28
  • WHIP: 1.32

Away Record: 26-22 • Home Record: 35-21
Last 5 Games: 3-2 (5.2 RPG)
Last 10 Games: 5-5 (4.7 RPG)


Boston Red Sox

The Red Sox have dropped three of their last five, but remain competitive thanks to consistent production from Wilyer Abreu and Trevor Story. They’ve shown flashes of offensive rhythm, though sustained momentum has been elusive in recent weeks.

Still, a 32-21 home record gives them reason for optimism at Fenway. Boston will need to match the Dodgers’ tempo early and tighten up run prevention to stay in the mix against a deep lineup.

  • Batting Average: 0.252
  • Total Runs Scored: 510
  • Home Runs: 129
  • OPS: 0.75
  • ERA: 3.79
  • WHIP: 1.29

Away Record: 23-29 • Home Record: 32-21
Last 5 Games: 2-3 (4.0 RPG)
Last 10 Games: 5-5 (3.1 RPG)
