The lineups have been posted for today's game.

The Red Sox used to have more success against Chien-Ming Wang, but he has matured as a pitcher, Red Sox manager Terry Francona said. Wang used to rely soley on his sinker. "At one time, he threw 21 straight two-seamers," Francona said of a game in a previous season.

Now Wang mixes in breaking balls and change-ups. "He's won 18 games. It's not a fluke," Francona said.

Here are the lineups:
