BOSTON — The Red Sox have been trotting out a rookie-heavy lineup during their recent run of victories, having won four games in a row and six of seven to get back to .500. Facing a tough pitching matchup Sunday, though, they’ll start the game with three of their prized rookies on the bench.

The Red Sox have a chance to break out the brooms for just the second time this season, as Boston can sweep the Yankees out of Fenway Park in Sunday’s series finale. The Red Sox last swept an opponent at the start of April, taking all three games from the Cardinals in the third series of the season.
