Game Preview
Boston Red Sox right-hander Brayan Bello aims to continue his successful run as he starts against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Saturday.
Sporting a 10-5 record with a 5.32 ERA, Bello is among just five American League pitchers who racked up double-digit wins before the mid-season break. He enters this game on a high note, having won his last three starts in July, including a solid outing against the Kansas City Royals last Sunday where he allowed three runs over 6 1/3 innings. In a prior game against the Oakland Athletics, he notched a season-high 11 strikeouts.
Although Bello’s strikeouts per nine innings have improved to 8.5 this season, his ERA, WHIP (1.472), and hits allowed per nine innings (9.9) have not reached last year’s levels.
This matchup marks Bello’s first career start against the Dodgers, who struggled offensively just before the break.
On Friday, Boston’s Nick Pivetta delivered a strong performance, limiting Los Angeles to two hits over six scoreless innings. However, the Dodgers rallied in the eighth, with Freddie Freeman hitting a grand slam to secure a 4-1 win for Los Angeles.
Despite the setback, Red Sox closer Kenley Jansen remains optimistic. "We’re all grinding for each other," Jansen stated, highlighting the team’s unity. He has recorded 19 saves in 32 appearances this season.
Boston’s sole run on Friday was a solo homer by Jarren Duran, the recent All-Star Game MVP. However, the Red Sox struggled with runners in scoring position, going 0-for-11 on Friday, including 0-for-8 in the early innings.
The Dodgers are set to respond with rookie left-hander Justin Wrobleski (0-1, 6.30 ERA), making his third career start as part of a rotation currently hampered by injuries.
