The 2018 World Series between the Boston Red Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers begins with a heavyweight pitching matchup.Left-handed pitchers Chris Sale and Clayton Kershaw will go head-to-head in Tuesday's opener at Fenway Park.Boston is attempting to finish off an incredible season Michael Conforto Jersey , as it earned home-field advantage in the World Series by way of a 108-54 regular-season record.Los Angeles has been a championship-caliber team for the last few years, but it's still in search of ending its 30-year championship drought.World Series Game 1 InformationStart Time:8:09 p.m. ETTV:FoxLive Stream:Fox Sports Go or Fox Sports App.Aces Dueling in World Series OpenerGame 1 should be a showcase of two of the best arms in baseball.If they are their normal selves on the mound, Sale and Kershaw should be locked into a pitching duel for the ages.Sale enters as the fresher of the two pitchers, as he last took the mound for Game 1 of the ALCS against the Houston Astros.In three career Game 1 starts, Sale has given up 11 earned runs, seven of which came in his first postseason start in the 2017 ALDS against Houston.Elise Amendola/Associated PressAlthough it's a small sample size because he's spent his career in the American League, Sale hasn't performed well against the Dodgers, as he's given up seven earned runs on nine hits in six innings.However, Sale can be tough to hit inside Fenway Park, as he is 12-6 with a 2.83 ERA and 235 strikeouts at his home stadium.Game 1 marks the 10th time Kershaw's kicked off a series for the Dodgers, and he'll be looking to replicate his performance from the World Series opener a year ago.Matt Slocum/Associated PressKershaw tossed seven superb innings to hand the Dodgers an early advantage in the World Series against Houston.Kershaw has even less familiarity with his opponent than Sale, as Tuesday marks the first time he'll toe the rubber at Fenway Park.Based off what we expect from the two aces, Game 1 will be tight with few runners reaching scoring position, which means it will most likely come down to the bullpens once Sale and Kershaw are finished their respective outings. How Will Roberts Align Dodgers Order?Dodgers manager Dave Roberts toyed with his lineup throughout the NLCS victory over the Milwaukee Brewers in order to find the best combination possible.Roberts used four different leadoff hitters in the final four games of the NLCS, and given the matchups ahead in the World Series, he'll tinker with his order more.The Dodgers are expected to use a lineup dominated by right-handed hitters with Sale on the mound, which means David Freese and Matt Kemp will start Game 1.However, the inclusion of one right-handed hitter might be Roberts' toughest decision to make, as Yasiel Puig is a .250 hitter versus left-handed pitching http://www.metsfanproshop.com/authentic-jose-reyes-jersey , but he's coming off a three-hit performance in Game 7 of the NLCS.Jeff Roberson/Associated PressThe designated-hitter role gives Roberts some flexibility in the first two games, which opens up the possibility for Puig to occupy an outfield position.The Dodgers also have more positional flexibility than the Red Sox, as Chris Taylor and Cody Bellinger can be aligned in the infield or outfield.For Game 1, Roberts should let Taylor lead off with Justin Turner and Freese directly beneath him in the order.The Dodgers manager will also find a way to put Puig in the bottom third of the lineup because of his hot bat.Even though the Dodgers face left-hander David Price in Game 2, Roberts could come out with a different lineup depending on how Game 1 goes.

The Boston Red Sox are clearly comfortable playing on the road.After recording a 51-30 mark away from Fenway Park during the regular season, the Red Sox went 2-0 in the American League Division Series at Yankee Stadium to clinch that series. They bludgeoned the Bronx Bombers in one game and hung on for a close victory in the other, so the 108-win team should be confident it can play in the noise cauldron that is Minute Maid Park in the American League Championship Series.However, it will not be easy. The Houston Astros have dominated postseason baseball at home, recording a 10-1 mark since the start of last October when they faced the Red Sox, Yankees, Dodgers and Indians (this year's ALDS).The Astros will send left-hander Dallas Keuchel to the mound to subdue Mookie Betts, J.D. Martinez, Xander Bogaerts and Andrew Benintendi. Betts had two doubles in Boston's Game 2 victory, while the Red Sox are hoping that Martinez can show off some of his power that allowed him to hit 43 home runs and drive in 130 runs this season. Martinez homered in his first postseason at-bat in the ALDS, but he has not hit a long ball since.Mike Petriello mike_petrielloKeuchel vs Eovaldi tonight. Its huge in the context of the ALCS, obviously, but its also interesting to think that these are going to be 2 of the top 3-4 FA SP available this winter. cwF0h7aF4wBoston will start hard-throwing Nathan Eovaldi, and the former Tampa Bay Ray hopes to emulate his Game 3 performance against the Yankees. Eovaldi dominated that strike zone in New York Jeurys Familia Jersey , pitched seven innings, gave up five hits, one run, struck out five and did not walk a batter.Theright-hander is going to attempt to hold down Alex Bregman, George Springer, Yuli Gurriel and Jose Altuve. Bregman, one of the game's best clutch hitters, is 0-for-3 in the series against the Red Sox with six walks.Eovaldi allowed four solo home runs when he pitched against the Astros on June 20 with the Rays, but he is throwing more cutters now."I definitely feel it's gotten the hitters off my fastball and then it's allowed me to get some earlier contact and go deeper into the games and not have to be so perfect with my fastball," Eovaldi said, per Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe. "And I'm able to mix in other pitches along with that and kind of go from there."The Red Sox and the Astros will meet at 5:09 p.m. Tuesday, and the game will be televised by TBS. It can be live-streamed at MLB.TV.The Astros are minus-135 favorites to win Game 3, while the Red Sox are plus-115 underdogs, per OddsShark(an Astros bettor would have to wager $135 to earn a $100 profit, while a Red Sox backer would risk $100 to win $115).
