Boston Red Sox vs. Tampa Bay Rays Radio Stream: Listen Free Online to ESPN Broadcast of Game 4

The Boston Red Sox will get another crack at defeating the Tampa Bay Rays in their ALDS Game 4 on Tuesday night. First pitch is a little after 8:35 p.m. ET and you can listen to all the action online for free as ESPN Radio brings you all the action.

The Rays should change their name to the Magic because they are the true Houdini in Florida. They were trailing 0-3 and the Red Sox appeared to be in total control. They took the lead, lost the lead and then walked off the field with the lead in the ninth, winning 5-4 and staying alive for another day.

Today, Jeremy Hellickson's excellence will be challenged by a Red Sox team that, although they enjoy playing in Fenway Park, would rather lock up the series once and for all in Tampa Bay. Hellickson's 2013 campaign was his worst in terms of ERA. He started 31 games, posting a 12-10 record with a 5.17 ERA. That's like John Lackey pre-2013 status right there. He pitched 174 innings, allowing 100 earned runs. He also allowed 24 home runs, so look for the Red Sox to swing for the fences in Game 4.

He will be opposed by a veteran and a winner. Jake Peavy has not been the same man who won 19 games back in 2006, but he has provided a punch in the Red Sox's rotation in 2013. As a midseason acquisition, Peavy has made 10 starts for Boston, posting a 4-1 record and pitching a complete game. Like Hellickson, he's prone to the long ball, but 14 of his 20 home runs came as a Chicago White Sox.

The Rays will look to use their momentum captured yesterday to defeat the Red Sox today. Meanwhile, the Red Sox will look to advance to the A.L. Championship Series, where they will face either the Oakland Athletics or the Detroit Tigers.

Will manager Joe Maddon pull out all the stops and provide a never-before-seen moment tonight? Will the Red Sox continue to roll and advance to the ALCS?
