The Red Sox are set to host the Tigers on Friday night as both teams try to get clear of a logjam in their divisions.
Boston sits in the middle of the pack in the American League, in large part thanks to strong starting pitching. And on Friday, the Red Sox will send their ace to the mound.
Right-hander Tanner Houck has a 1.90 ERA through 11 starts, on the heels of posting a 5.01 ERA in 106 innings last season. Last time out, Houck twirled six innings of one-run ball against the Brewers.
Detroit, much like Boston, finds itself in the thick of things thanks to its pitching and will counter Houck with veteran Kenta Maeda. The 36-year-old has a 5.80 ERA in eight starts to begin his career in Detroit but threw five shutout innings in his last start after spending two and a half weeks on the injured list.
This game marks the second of a four-game series between the two teams.
