Red Sox, Orioles Set for Doubleheader After Rain Delays

BOSTON, Massachusetts — The Boston Red Sox are set to face the Baltimore Orioles in a much-anticipated doubleheader on Saturday, May 24, 2025. The first game begins at 1:05 p.m. ET at Fenway Park.

Fans were treated to a thrilling contest on Friday, where the Red Sox triumphed over the Orioles in a lopsided 19-5 victory. Rafael Devers was the standout player, driving in eight runs during the game. Boston’s offense has been strong recently, and the team hopes to build on that momentum this weekend.

The Red Sox enter the doubleheader with a record of 27-26, while the struggling Orioles sit at 16-34. Boston has had the upper hand in recent meetings, winning five of their last seven encounters.

On the mound for Boston in the first game will be 25-year-old Hunter Dobbins, who boasts a 2-1 record with a 3.62 ERA this season. Dobbins is coming off a solid performance against the New York Mets in which he allowed only one run in 4.2 innings of work.

For Baltimore, Zach Eflin will start, looking to improve his 3-2 record and 5.08 ERA. His recent outings have included some challenges, including a rough performance where he gave up eight runs against the Washington Nationals.
