RHP Austin Pruitt (2-0, 3.65) vs. RHP Justin Haley (5-7, 3.90)

After taking the third game 3-0, the Durham Bulls face the Pawtucket Red Sox looking to salvage a series-split in the series finale at McCoy Stadium. Austin Pruitt is scheduled to start for the Bulls, opposite Justin Haley for the PawSox as the North and South Division foes wrap up the season series. The Bulls look to remain atop of the South Division and finish 4-3 on a seven-game road trip. First pitch is scheduled for 1:35 p.m.

Durham's lead in the South Division grew to 4.5 games with the combination of the Bulls win and the Norfolk Tides (64-59) dropping both ends of a doubleheader against Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. The Tides were defeated 2-1, and 3-1 in the twin-bill against the RailRiders and drop to 2.0 games back of Indianapolis and Columbus for the Wild Card Spot.
