NEW IN BASEBALL OPS: Yesterday, the Red Sox announced that Frank Wren has been hired as Senior Vice President, Baseball Operations...On Thursday, the club named Mike Hazen the team s Senior Vice President/General Manager...President of Baseball Operations Dave Dombrowski made the announcements. FROM HERE TO THE END: Tonight s game is the 6th of 7 in the Red Sox final homestand of 2015, which began with 4 games against the Rays (1-3) and ends with 3 against the Orioles (1-0 thus far)...on Monday they begin a seasonending 7-game road trip through NYY (4 G) and CLE (3 G). 3 OF A KIND: Last night Rich Hill became the fi rst Red Sox pitcher this season to throw a shutout, allowing just 2 hits and 1 walk with 10 strikeouts on 116 pitches...hill has now fanned 10 batters in all 3 starts this season (also 9/13 at TB & 9/20 at TOR), becoming just the 5th pitcher in Red Sox history to have double-digit strikeouts in at least 3 straight games, joining Pedro Martinez (several times), Roger Clemens (3 times), Jon Lester (2 times), and Ray Culp (1968). Hill is the fi rst major league pitcher since 1900 to make a season debut in September or later and have 10-strikeout starts in his first 3 games of that season. Hill is the only pitcher in the last 100 years with at least 10 SO in each of his fi rst 3 starts for any single AL team...elias says Hill is the 1st pitcher since 1900 to strike out at least 10 in his fi rst 3 starts immediately following a gap of 5+ years since his previous start. Hill is the fi rst ever Red Sox pitcher to record 10 SO in his fi rst 3 starts for the team...he is the only Sox pitcher in the last 100 years to have 3 consecutive starts at any point of at least 7.0 innings with 10+ strikeouts in each and 1 or 0 walks in each. STARTING DEBUT: Today Craig Breslow, who turned 35 years old in August, will make the fi rst start in 523 career major league games...he will be the fi rst pitcher to make his fi rst start that late in a career by games played since Troy Percival in his 639th career game on 9/30/07 with St. Louis, and the fi rst left-hander to do it since Chuck McElroy in his 604th career game on 9/20/2000 with Baltimore. According to Elias, he will pass Scott Atchison as the oldest ever Red Sox pitcher at the time of his fi rst career major league start...atchison did it at 34 years, 75 days old on 6/12/2010 vs. PHI. Elias also says Breslow will be the oldest pitcher to make his fi rst major league start at age 35 or older and do it for an AL team since Danny Boone at 36 years old for the Orioles on 9/30/90. LEFTY RECORD: Today Craig Breslow will become the 6th different left-handed pitcher to start for the Red Sox this year, along with Rich Hill, Brian Johnson, Wade Miley, Henry Owens, and Eduardo Rodriguez. This is just the 2nd time Boston has featured as many as 6 different left-handed starters in a single season... They also had 7 lefties start in 1934 (Lefty Grove, George Hockette, Spike Merena, Fritz Ostermueller, Herb Pennock, Rube Walberg, and Bob Weiland). BATTLING BIRDS: Tonight the Red Sox and Orioles continue their 19-game season series, which Boston trails 6-games-to-11 despite being outscored in those 17 games by just 3 runs (76-79)...Boston is 4-4 against the Birds at Fenway this year, winning 3 of their last 5 matchups here. OFFENSIVE FORCE: Since 7/30, the Red Sox offense leads all MLB teams in AVG (.290) and ranks 2nd in the majors in OBP (.345) and runs scored per game (5.75).

Pedroia s 35 games mark the longest on-base streak by a Red Sox against divisional foes since Manny Ramirez did it in 35 games from 9/9/01-7/11/02...It is the longest divisional on-base streak for a Red Sox in a single season since Wade Boggs did it in 45 games against the AL East from 4/8-8/27/85 (Source: Elias). BETTS IS ON: Mookie Betts has reached base safely in a career-high 28 consecutive games dating back to 8/24 (.368 AVG, 43-for-117, 9 2B, 3B, 4 HR, 13 RBI, 10 BB, HBP,.419 OBP)...It is the longest on-base streak by a Red Sox since Mike Napoli reached in 33 straight games, 4/4-5/14/14. Betts 28-game stretch is the 2nd-longest active on-base streak in the AL and the 2nd-longest active streak in the majors behind CIN s Joey Votto, who enters today having reached in 42 consecutive games. ENTER XAND MAN: Xander Bogaerts has reached base safely in a career-high 23 consecutive games dating back to 8/30, batting.385 (37-for-96) with 7 2B, 3 HR, 18 RBI, 8 BB, and 3 SB...It marks the longest on-base streak by a Red Sox shortstop since Nomar Garciaparra reached in 26 consecutive games from 4/27-5/26/03. Overall this season, Bogaerts ranks 2nd in the AL with a.325 AVG, trailing only DET s Miguel Cabrera (.334)...He also places 2nd in the AL with 188 hits, just 1 shy of the AL leader (HOU s Jose Altuve, 189). ANOTHER CENTURY: David Ortiz has driven in 5 runs in the last 2 games and now ranks 6th in the AL with 104 RBI...On Thursday night, he crossed the 100 RBI plateau for the 9th time in his career, all as a Red Sox, tying Ted Williams for the most in 100-RBI seasons in team history. Ortiz also ranks 8th in the AL with 36 HR, his highest single-season homer total since hitting 54 in 2006.
