Aaron Cook (L), Hector Noesi (R)

After falling 1-0 last night, the Boston Red Sox look to get back on track tonight in the second game of a four-game set with the Seattle Mariners at Safeco Field in Seattle, WA.

First pitch is scheduled for 10:10 p.m. and will be broadcast on NESN in the Red Sox television market. If you live in the Mariners television market, you can catch the game on ROOT Sports.  If you can’t catch the television broadcast, you can always listen to it on the Red Sox radio network.

Aaron Cook will makes his second start since returning from the disabled list and third overall this season. In his previous two starts, Cook is 1-1 with a 9.39 ERA (8 ER/7.2 IP). Tonight marks his first career start against the Mariners.

Hector Noesi has struggled in his 15 starts for the Mariners this season after coming to them in an offseason trade from the New York Yankees. In his previous 15 starts, Noesi is 2-9 with a 5.50 ERA. His two career appearances against the Red Sox came last year as a member of the Yankees. In those two appearances, Noesi had no record with a 6.43 ERA (5 ER/7 IP).
