    After the Boston Red Sox suffered a loss to the Colorado Rockies on Monday, their fourth loss in as many games, the two teams will meet again on Tuesday at Coors Field.

    For the matchup, Boston will send Cooper Criswell to the mound, while Colorado will counter with Ty Blach.

    Here's what Alex Cora's lineup will look like for the middle game of the series:

    1. Jarren Duran CF
    2. Rob Refsnyder LF
    3. Connor Wong C
    4. Rafael Devers 3B
    5. Tyler O’Neill RF
    6. Masataka Yoshida DH
    7. Romy González 1B
    8. Ceddanne Rafaela SS
    9. Jamie Westbrook 2B

    And, here's Bud Black's:

    1. Charlie Blackmon DH
    2. Ezequiel Tovar SS
    3. Brendan Rodgers 2B
    4. Brenton Doyle CF
    5. Kris Bryant RF
    6. Elias Diaz C
    7. Jake Cave LF
    8. Michael Toglia 1B
    9. Aaron Schunk 3B

    Criswell has been all right in his 13 appearances (12 starts) for Boston, posting a 4.50 ERA and a 1.28 WHIP and striking out 50 batters. In his lone start since returning from Triple-A, he gave up five runs on nine hits and two walks to the Kansas City Royals. He's never faced any member of the Rockies lineup.

    Blach has struggled for Colorado this season, recording a 5.46 ERA and a 1.58 WHIP while striking out 32 batters over his 16 appearances (nine starts). He gave up five runs on 10 hits in his last start against the Los Angeles Dodgers. He's allowed hits to three Red Sox - Devers (2-for-3 with an RBI), O'Neill (1-for-1 with a solo home run and a walk) and Smith (2-for-3 with two RBIs).
