Top A.L. teams square off Monday Night as the Boston Red Sox face the Oakland Athletics. Check out the live stream brought to you by MLB.TV. Game time is at 6:35 p.m. ET/3:35 p.m. PT. Here are the pitching matchups.

The A's are in second place in the West, while the Red Sox are currently dominating the East. The Athletics trail the Texas Rangers by just half again after losing three straight game and watching the Rangers win three straight over the weekend against Seattle. The Red Sox, playing emotional baseball won the most important game of the weekend, Saturday's game following the ceremonies commemorating those who passed, were injured or helped out during Monday's marathon bombing. The Red Sox slipped up losing two straight games in Sunday's doubleheader.

On the mound for both teams, the Red Sox will have Felix Doubront, while the A's have A.J. Griffin on the hill. Boubront will have to bring his best game if he's to get past Griffin, who's pitched great baseball in 2013. He has a 2-0 record with a 2.25 ERA. In his last start, he gave up two earned runs in six innings pitched against the Houston Astros.

For Doubront, he's only pitched twice in 2013. He last faced the Cleveland Indians where he earned his first victory of the year. He went five innings and gave up only two earned runs. However, he showed signs of lack of control as he walked four despite striking out seven batters.

The Red Sox have David Ortiz back in their lineup, which should make them even more dangerous.
