Major League Baseball released the Boston Red Sox’s 2027 schedule on Thursday afternoon, laying out a 162‑game slate that begins with a four‑game series in Seattle against the Mariners.
Opening Road Trip
The Red Sox will then travel to Houston for a three‑game set against the Astros, continuing a road‑trip that tests the club’s depth early in the year.
Home Opener and Early Series
Boston’s first home game at Fenway Park is slated for April 1, when the team welcomes the Cincinnati Reds for a four‑game series that coincides with Patriots’ Day.
A four‑game series against the Cleveland Guardians will follow over the same holiday weekend, giving fans a chance to see the club in action on a traditionally festive schedule slot.
Betts Returns to Fenway
The most anticipated return will see Mookie Betts back in Fenway Park from May 14‑16, when the Los Angeles Dodgers visit for a three‑game series that promises fireworks.
Rivalry Renewed with Yankees
The Red Sox and New York Yankees will meet first in Boston from June 4‑7, before traveling to the Bronx for a three‑game set June 11‑13, reigniting one of baseball’s fiercest rivalries.
Mid‑Season Journey to Wrigley Field
Mid‑summer, the club will make a brief stop in Chicago, playing the Cubs at Wrigley Field from July 30 through August 1, adding a classic ballpark experience to the itinerary.
While the schedule is packed with marquee matchups, its future remains uncertain. Ongoing negotiations between team owners and the players’ association have raised the possibility of a labor dispute that could delay or reshape the season.
