Houck will pitch for the guests tomorrow. In his last start, he conceded four runs (three earned) on five hits and four walks in a six-inning loss to the New York Yankees. Houck is 4-2 with a 2.38 ERA and 1.09 WHIP in nine road starts. He hasn’t faced the Rangers this season. He has a 3.86 ERA in two career appearances (7.0 IP) against Texas.

The defending champions are five matches under .500 and 4.5 matches out of the division lead in the A.L. West. Texas is paced by 2B Marcus Semien (3.4 WAR) and 1B Nathaniel Lowe (2.2 WAR).
The Rangers will either make a call-up or opt for a bullpen game tomorrow. Their pen has underperformed in 2024, ranking 27th in ERA (4.46) and 24th in WHIP (1.34) with 49 homers permitted. They are top-ten in strikeouts (401) but have handed out the third-most walks (182).

The Red Sox hit .283/.343/.496/.839 in July and averaged 5.5 runs per match since the end of May.
