The Philadelphia Phillies and Boston Red Sox, both under interim managers after early-season dismissals, open a three-game interleague series Tuesday at Fenway Park.
The Phillies replaced Rob Thomson with Don Mattingly, while the Red Sox installed Chad Tracy after parting with Alex Cora. Philadelphia improved to 19-22 after going 10-3 under Mattingly, aided by strong pitching from Zack Wheeler and Cristopher Sánchez. Boston stands at 17-23 following a 7-6 stretch under Tracy, with emphasis on increased stolen bases to offset limited power.
