Red Sox/Astros – Seven Games In Next 10 Days

The Red Sox will play the Astros seven times this season. More precisely, Boston will play Houston seven times in the next 10 days.

A four-game series in Houston begins tonight and then, after three games at home against the Dodgers, three more against the Astros at Fenway.

There are 38 games remaining in the regular season and the Red Sox are three games out from the final Wild Card spot, with only one team to get past. That's not impossible.
