Foltynewicz, who made his first All-Star appearance this season, will carry a 2.80 ERA and a 1.14 WHIP into this start. Despite his impressive statistics, he owns a 10-9 record thanks to a lack of offensive help in Atlanta. The Braves have scored a total of just seven runs in his last three starts. With Atlanta looking to hold off the Philadelphia Phillies atop the National League West division standings, they will need Foltynewicz at his best once again versus the best team in baseball on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, Boston will counter with Rick Porcello who, despite a rough stretch, is still 15-7 with a 4.27 ERA this season. Porcello has been tagged with a loss in three of his last four decisions. He has allowed four earned runs or more in three of his last five starts. While they led the AL by 7.5 games exiting the weekend, the Red Sox still want to see Porcello round into form with the postseason right around the corner.
