The Boston Red Sox will look for their fourth straight win overall and their seventh straight this season against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim tonight at Fenway Park, weather permitting.

First pitch for tonight’s game is at 7:10 p.m. and the game will be televised by NESN in the Red Sox television market. If you live in the Angels television market, you can catch the game on FoxSports West. If you don’t live in either market, you’re in luck as you can also watch the game on ESPN or online at ESPN3.com. And if you can’t catch the television broadcast, you can always listen to the game on the 2011 Red Sox Radio Network.

Here’s the press release from the Red Sox regarding the inclement weather in the area:

The current weather forecast in the vicinity of Fenway Park calls for scattered rain showers during the afternoon and evening hours. Conditions are expected to improve as the evening progresses. All Fenway Park gates will open as regularly scheduled at 5:40 p.m. with a limited opening on Yawkey Way at 5:10 p.m. The Red Sox are hopeful that tonight’s game against the Los Angeles Angels, which is scheduled to start at 7:10 p.m., will be played. However, the Red Sox want to alert our fans to the current forecast and to the possibility of delay.
