The visiting Boston Red Sox will have another chance to finally break through with at least a run against Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Bowden Francis on Tuesday night.
Francis (8-5, 3.47 ERA) has yet to allow a run in 9 2/3 innings over four career outings, including one start, against the Red Sox. He has faced them twice this season, defeating them in a start on Aug. 29 at Boston when he allowed one hit and no walks while striking out five over seven innings.
