But due to unfortunate circumstances, they'll avoid that potential showdown.the 10-day injured list on Monday with a sprained left ankle. Marte pinch-hit in Arizona's game on Sunday, so he won't be eligible to return until August 29.
If there's one thing the Red Sox certainly can't afford to do, it's look ahead to the Arizona series. They've got more than enough on their hands now with Houston, which has now taken seven straight from Boston dating back to last season.
