    After the Boston Red Sox took two out of three games from the Chicago White Sox, they'll host the Baltimore Orioles for a three-game series at Fenway Park starting on Monday.

    For the matchup, Boston will send Brayan Bello to the mound while Baltimore will counter with Cade Povich.

    Here's Alex Cora's lineup for the opener:

    1. Jarren Duran LF
    2. Rafael Devers 3B
    3. Rob Refsnyder RF
    4. Tyler O'Neill DH
    5. Romy Gonzalez 2B
    6. Connor Wong 1B
    7. Trevor Story SS
    8. Danny Jansen C
    9. Ceddanne Rafaela CF

    And, here's Brandon Hyde's:

    1. Gunnar Henderson SS
    2. Cedric Mullins CF
    3. Anthony Santander RF
    4. Ryan O'Hearn 1B
    5. Adley Rutschman C
    6. Eloy Jimenez DH
    7. Colton Cowder LF
    8. Coby Mayo 3B
    9. Livian Soto 2B

    Bello has been all right for Boston this season, posting a 4.75 ERA and a 1.38 WHIP while striking out 135 batters in 26 starts. He's faced the Orioles three times this year and has a 2.76 ERA, a 1.10 WHIP and an 8.8 K/9. Nine Orioles have recorded hits against Bello - Colton Cower (3-for-8 with four RBIs), Gunnar Henderson (3-for-13 with a solo home run and a walk), Eloy Jimenez (3-for-3), Nick Maton (1-for-2), Cedric Mullins (4-for-9 with two walk), Ryan O'Hearn (2-for-8 with three walks), Emmanuel Rivera (1-for-3), Adley Rutschman (1-for-10 with two walks) and Anthony Santander (1-for-12 with a walk).

    Povich has struggled for Baltimore in his 12 starts this season, posting a 5.76 ERA and a 1.60 WHIP while striking out just 47 batters. He tossed 6 1/3 inning in his lone outing against Boston earlier this year, allowing two earned runs on six hits. Five Red Sox have recorded hits against Povich - Triston Cass (2-for-3), Romy Gonzalez (1-for-3), Tyler O'Neill (1-for-3 with an RBI), Ceddanne Rafaela (1-for-2) and Rob Refsnyder (1-for-3).
