The defending World Series champion Houston Astros will host the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday night for Game 3 of the AL Championship Series, and here is what you need to know.
The series is tied 1-1 after Boston won 7-5 on Sunday.
On Tuesday, the Red Sox are set to start righty Nathan Eovaldi, while the Astros will put Dallas Keuchel on the mound. Tuesday’s game in Houston will start at 5:09 p.m. EST and will air on TBS. It can also be live-streamed for free on fuboTV.
The Red Sox lost lefty ace Chris Sale to a stomach illness this weekend, which means Eovaldi will be the first right-hander to start for Boston in the ALCS (Lefty David Price also started in this series).
