Red Sox start Payton Tolle in series finale against Orioles

The Boston Red Sox prepare for their series finale against the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday at Camden Yards with rookie left-hander Payton Tolle scheduled to start. Boston enters the matchup seeking a four-game sweep after securing consecutive shutouts in the first three games of the series. Tolle carries an 8-6 record and a 3.23 ERA into his 24th start of the season. The rookie, a 2024 draft pick, has become an integral part of the Boston rotation alongside Sonny Gray, and the team is managing its late-season schedule with a potential postseason role for the pair in mind. The Orioles will counter with Kyle Bradish, who holds a 7-12 record. First pitch is set for 1:35 p.m. ET.
