BOSTON (Interstat) — The Athletics and Boston Red Sox will conclude a hard-fought three-game series with a Thursday afternoon matchup at Fenway Park.

First pitch is scheduled for 1:35 p.m. EDT.

The series is knotted at one game apiece after a pair of tightly contested contests. The Red Sox (83-69) evened the set with a 5-4 walk-off victory Wednesday afternoon, a game in which their bullpen shined. Relievers Justin Slaten and Garrett Whitlock combined for 2 2/3 innings of scoreless, hitless relief after starter Lucas Giolito allowed four runs over 4 1/3 innings.

The Athletics (71-81) saw strong bullpen work of their own in the loss from Elvis Alvarado and Justin Sterner, but it wasn’t enough to overcome an early deficit. had won the series opener 2-1 on Tuesday.

Despite their losing record, the Athletics have been playing competitive baseball, winning seven of their last 12 games. The Red Sox, who remain in the American League wild-card hunt, have gone 7-5 over the same stretch.

The Interstat game simulator forecasts an victory with a 7-4 final score, and the Athletics have been installed as a -1.5 run favorite on the betting spread. However, the same outlet’s ELO rating system gives Boston a 60.6% probability to win. The over/under for total runs is set at 9.

Following the game, the Red Sox will travel to Florida to open a three-game series against the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday. The Athletics continue their road trip with a weekend series against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
