BALTIMORE -- The Boston Red Sox sit comfortably atop the American League East and can further distance themselves from the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday night.Boston dominated the first two matchups of the crucial four-game series, outscoring Baltimore 10-4. The Red Sox lead the fading Orioles by five games, and another victory will likely shift Baltimores focus solely on retaining one of the two wild-card berths.I think there is growing confidence in our clubhouse daily, Red Sox manager John Farrell said. Weve responded to a number of challenges, whether its on the road or coming from behind to win ball games in the division. Those are key. When you succeed in those, thats a snowball effect that takes place. To balance that out, no one is taking any of that for granted.Clay Buchholz (7-10, 5.20 ERA) tries to lead the Red Sox to their seventh straight victory. The right-hander was dominant in his last outing against the Yankees, when he picked up the win after allowing two runs on seven hits over six innings.The Orioles turn to Ubaldo Jimenez (7-11, 5.94 ERA) to gain some much-needed momentum. He has surprisingly been one of Baltimores best pitchers over the past month. Jimenez was put in the rotation when Chris Tillman went on the disabled list Aug. 24. From there, Jimenez has thrived and helped the playoff push.In his last outing, Jimenez gave the Orioles bullpen a rest by throwing seven innings in a 5-4 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays. However, Jimenez has struggled against the Red Sox, going 2-5 with a 7.39 ERA in 13 starts.While Baltimore manager Buck Showalter declined to describe any game as a must win, his team sorely needs a victory.We know how many opportunities there are and theres still an opportunity for us, Showalter said. They are a good team, like all the teams are at this level, but especially a team having as good of a year as they are. Its one thing to want to do it, as much as our guys want to, but you get a couple pitching performances against us like weve had the last two nights its a challenge.The biggest challenge for Jimenez will be containing Red Sox right fielder Mookie Betts, who has pounded Orioles pitching this season. Betts has hit safely in all eight games at Camden Yards, batting .561 with eight home runs and 15 RBI over that span.David Ortiz also dominated the Orioles pitching staff. On Tuesday, Ortiz got his 36th home run, a three-run shot in the seventh inning, that proved to be the decisive blow in the 5-2 victory.This was really huge, Bradley said. We faced a really good team in Baltimore. To get two wins right away is very vital for us. I think it will help us keep building on our momentum and finish strong.The 36 homers by Ortiz are the most by any player in his final season, one ahead of Dave Kingman in 1986. Ortiz has six home runs in his past nine games at Camden Yards.Ill try to hit a couple more so nobody can reach me, Ortiz said. Its just a number, man. Im just trying to help this ballclub. I dont care about personal numbers. I care about winning. Air Jordan Black Friday 2019 . The 18th player to shoot 60 on the tour, Jamieson settled for par on the final hole when his 15-foot birdie chip grazed the edge of the hole and stayed out. After opening with rounds of 66 and 73 to make the cut by a stroke, he had 11 birdies in the bogey-free round. Clearance Air Jordan Black Friday .

Manuel was offered a position the day he was fired. He accepted earlier this week and the team made the announcement Friday. Jason Taylor and his Wests Tigers face the biggest test of their new direction and faith in Luke Brooks and Mitchell Moses against NRL title contenders Canterbury on Saturday night.Tigers management have been forced to make some tough choices over the last 12 months after their decision to invest in young halves Brooks and Moses.Martin Taupaus move to Manly in an effort to free up salary cap space and the release of Blake Austin to Canberra has centred around the belief their young halves are the future of the club.Taylor has been a frequent target of critics but has always maintained that he was acting in the best interests of the organisation.But the 21-year-olds face a crucial examination against the surging Dogs without senior players Robbie Farah, Aaron Woods and James Tedesco on Saturday night.Our halves taking ownership is what weve built our last six or eight weeks on, Taylor said.Ill be disappointed if that doesnt happen. I want that to continue.Well miss those guys because theyre quality players but the opposition has got some key players out as well.Farah, Woods and Tedesco will miss the ANZ Stadium clash because of State of Origin with JJ Felise, Joel Edwards and Josh Addo-Carr coming in. Fill-in fullback Jordan Rankin suffered a rolled ankle at training during the week but Taylor said he was hopeful of playing.The Bulldogs will be without NSW stars David Klemmer and Josh Jackkson however thats offset by the return of New Zealand international Greg Eastwood.ddddddddddddThe Bulldogs have jumped into the top four for the first time this year following three straight wins, with statistics showing they have been one of the most disciplined teams in the competition this year.They are second for completion rates (78.5 per cent), miss the second fewest tackles (21.1 per game), while their giant forward pack has been able to make the third most metres per game (average 1510 metres).Its always hard to gauge, we think we can play a bit better than the last outing, Canterbury coach Des Hasler said when asked if they were at their best yet.I just think its too early, were still just getting through this last Origin patch.But what you want to try to do is build momentum and I think thats pretty important.STATS THAT MATTER* Hooker Dene Halatau will move into equal sixth on the all-time Tigers list for matches played, equalling Keith Galloway with 173 matches.* Canterbury have been the dominant team in this fixture, winning 19 of 30 matches.* Wests Tigers downfall this season has been its defence. They have conceded the second most points (25.4 per game), tries (4.4), linebreaks (5.8) and conceded the most offloads (11.2).Source: Fox Sports Stats ' ' '
