Suárez starts as Red Sox and Guardians play series rubber match

The Red Sox host the Cleveland Guardians at Fenway Thursday at 6:45 p.m. ET in the series rubber match. Ranger Suárez starts for Boston with a 0.92 ERA in September; Cleveland can clinch a playoff spot with a win or if the Astros or Rangers lose.

Cleveland counters with right-hander Daniel Espino, back on the mound after injuries; the Guardians selected him in the first round of the 2019 draft. NESN is televising the game.
