The Boston Red Sox will be looking to pick up their 11th consecutive win as they take on the Tampa Bay Rays Saturday afternoon. A win won't come easy though as they'll face a red hot Jake Odorizzi on the mound.

Odorizzi (9-6, 3.73) has allowed just three runs through 13 innings in his last two starts, and he's coming in well rested after holding the Orioles to one run in six innings last Sunday his last time out. Odorizzi is 2-0 with a 1.01 ERA against Boston in four career starts at Tropicana Field.

The Red Sox turn to left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez (3-7, 4.84 ERA) who has allowed six runs on 12 hits in just 8 2/3 innings in his last two starts. He did not fare well against the Rays in his last outing by allowing nine runs and 11 hits in 2 2/3 innings of a June 27 loss, and he's 0-1 with a 9.88 ERA in three starts against them.

Red Sox are 0-7 in Rodriguez's last seven starts during Game 3 of a series, and the Rays are 7-1 in their last eight games after losing the first two games of a series.
