Boston Red Sox hold a narrow edge in the three-game series at Fenway Park following an 11-1 rout of the Diamondbacks on August 17, where all nine starters drove in runs and the offense collected 16 hits. The Red Sox sit at 67-58 and trail for the second AL wild card, while Arizona stands at 66-60 after a recent series win over Atlanta. Key factors include home-field advantage, Boston’s stronger recent form, and a favorable pitching matchup with Ranger Suarez facing Merrill Kelly. Arizona’s lineup faces added pressure from Nolan Arenado’s day-to-day side discomfort and lingering absences for Ketel Marte and others, limiting depth against a Red Sox club that has maintained consistent scoring. The remaining games on August 18-19 will hinge on bullpen stability, defensive execution at Fenway, and whether the Diamondbacks can generate early offense to offset road fatigue in the late-August schedule.
