Prediction
The Dodgers are sending rookie left-hander Justin Wrobleski (0-1, 6.30 ERA) to the mound in this contest. Boston is countering by sending out Brayan Bello (10-5, 5.32 ERA) to see if they can tie the series up.
The Dodgers offense was slow to wake up last night before Freeman saved them. They will need a better showing this time around, especially with a rookie on the mound. However, the team uses the energy from last night and grabs a second straight victory.
Dodgers 4, Red Sox 2

• Wrobleski spoke after his last start about how he knows he could be better. He has allowed seven runs in his first two career starts. The prized left-hander needs to show more if he wants to stay with the big-league team.
• Despite a poor record over the last month or so, Los Angeles still holds a seven-game lead in the NL West.
