Tonight at 7:10 p.m. ET, the Atlanta Braves (30-33) and Boston Red Sox (27-37) clash at Fenway Park in Boston.
These teams will play each other over the next four days with two of the contests being at Fenway Park and the other two at Turner Field. Atlanta closes out a five-game road trip having lost three of its last four matches while Boston resumes a five-game homestand looking to stop a six-game skid.
The Braves dropped two of three games to the New York Mets over the weekend while the Red Sox were swept away by the Toronto Blue Jays.

Williams Perez (2-0, 2.70 ERA) toes the rubber for Atlanta while Boston counters with Rick Porcello and he is 4-6 with a 5.26 ERA thus far this season.
Perez allowed one unearned runs in seven innings against the Padres in San Diego last time out. Porcello, meanwhile, comes in on the heels of his fourth straight loss and allowed five runs on 10 hits in 5.1 innings against the Baltimore Orioles.
The Red Sox took all four meetings from the Braves last season and hold a 30-28 mark over them historically.
Boston second baseman Dustin Pedroia is hitting .309 with nine homers and 27 RBI while he's fourth in the American League with 79 hits.
Atlanta's offense is paced by first baseman Freddie Freeman and he is hitting .306 with 12 round-trippers and 40 RBI. Freeman is also tied for second in the National League with 19 doubles and in sole possession of fifth with 129 total bases.
Both teams enter with some work to do in the standings as Atlanta is third in the NL East, 3.5 games behind the first-place New York Mets while Boston is last in the AL East, eight games behind the division-leading New York Yankees.
The Braves and Red Sox begin a two-stadium four-game interleague series live tonight from Fenway Park in Boston.
