Before they prepare for the playoffs, the Red Sox and Cubs will meet in their final series of the 2026 regular season.
With the threat of inclement weather looming over the AL vs. NL battle, the start times for games were changed. There will now be a doubleheader on Friday, and the finale is scheduled to be played on Saturday night.
However, if the harsh conditions arrive before the first pitch, Boston and Chicago may be forced to shift to a neutral site.
