For the hosts, youngster Cade Povich makes the start. On paper, Povich has fared much worse than his counterpart, pitching with a 1-5 record, along with a 5.46 ERA ad 64 total strikeouts.

At the plate, Ryan O'Hearn, Cedric Mullins, Adley Rutschman and Gunnar Henderson have led the way for the AL East outfit.
