Josh Beckett was roughed up in his start yesterday against the Pittsburgh Pirates in Bradenton. Today, the Boston Red Sox look to rebound against their AL East brethren the Baltimore Orioles at City of Palms Park in Ft. Myers.
The game today will start at 1:05 p.m. and will be broadcast on NESN in the Red Sox television market. If you can’t watch the game on television, it will be broadcast on WEEI 850 AM. It is also available on MLB.com if you have the MLB.tv or Gameday Audio package. You can also catch it on the MLB At Bat app for the iPhone and iPod Touch.
