Xander Bogaerts, Portland to headline Futures at Fenway

The Red Sox announced Monday details for their eighth annual "Futures at Fenway" event, but this year there is a twist: It will be a single game, not a doubleheader.

The Portland Sea Dogs and Harrisburg Senators (WAS) will face off at noon on Saturday, July 27 at Fenway Park. A concert featuring "The Kidz Bop Kids" will take the place of the second game.

Based on the Sea Dogs' current roster, a number of the SoxProspect.com Top 20 will see action at Fenway: shortstop Xander Bogaerts (No. 1) (pictured), right-handed pitchers Matt Barnes (No. 4), Anthony Randaudo (No. 11) and Brandon Workman (No. 12), left-hander Drake Britton (No. 16) and catcher Christian Vazquez (No. 18).

It will be Portland's fourth FaF appearance overall and first since 2011.

Tickets go on sale noon Wednesday at redsox.com.
