KEY GAME INFORMATION
BALTIMORE: BALTIMORE (AP) - The transformation of the Baltimore Orioles clubhouse under manager Buck Showalter is complete.
No longer do the Orioles hope to win. They expect it.
When Showalter took over in July 2010, he inherited a team with the worst record in the majors. Having gone without a winning season since 1997, Baltimore could only hope Showalter's knack for orchestrating quick turnarounds would take hold in a town that had switched its allegiance from baseball to football.
By 2012, the Orioles were back. Baltimore won 93 games, beat Texas in the wild-card matchup and took the New York Yankees to the limit before falling in the AL division series.
After missing the postseason last year, the Orioles are poised for a return. They maintained the nucleus of a team that went 85-77 and was in contention to the final week, then added right-handed starter Ubaldo Jimenez and slugger Nelson Cruz to an already potent lineup that led the majors in home runs in 2013.
''When you have talent, you have confidence,'' right fielder Nick Markakis said. ''Put them together and good things usually happen. We've got that right now. We know we have a good team and we're going to roll with it.''
Although Jimenez and Cruz didn't come aboard until after the start of spring training, Showalter never wavered in his belief that the Orioles would challenge the defending champion Boston Red Sox and retooled Yankees in the AL East.
''I felt that way whether or not we added Nelson and Jimenez,'' he said. ''That's a poor reflection on me and my staff if we thought we needed more to win.''
BOSTON: BOSTON (AP) - Last season was one to remember for fans of the Red Sox - and one to forget for the players.
Soon after Boston's third World Series championship in 10 years, that bearded bunch decided to put it behind them and focus on what they must do to keep winning.
''It was a dream come true last year,'' pitcher Jake Peavy said. ''It's a new year. I think that's been a slogan of ours on the text messages that we've been exchanging with the guys, `Hey turn the page, it's a new year, it's 2014.' We haven't done anything and, obviously, some teams in our division got awfully better.''
The Red Sox won't be sneaking up on them, not after rebounding from a 69-93, last-place finish in the AL East to a 97-65 record, a 28-win improvement.
''You've got the bull's-eye on your back,'' second baseman Dustin Pedroia said. ''You want to get everybody's best, so I think it's going to be a fun challenge for everybody.''
John Farrell's disciplined, businesslike approach worked in his first year as Boston's manager. That, and the influx of players to improve the toxic clubhouse chemistry, made the one season under the animated Bobby Valentine seem like a distant memory.
Those players, including Jonny Gomes, Mike Napoli and Shane Victorino, return. The Red Sox lost center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury to the New York Yankees then signed Grady Sizemore as a possible replacement. Sizemore missed the last two seasons with knee and back injuries that required surgery but has had a healthy, productive spring training.
''In this group, no one's going to let anybody sit back and relax,'' Pedroia said. ''We're always going to push each other and make sure that we're respecting the game and playing the game the right way. If we do that, we should be all right.''

*Orioles-Red Sox Preview* =========================

By TAYLOR BECHTOLD STATS Writer

Baltimore (8-8) at Boston (8-10), 11:05 a.m. EDT

David Ortiz wants to visit the Boston Marathon finish line Monday after what he hopes will be a series win for the Boston Red Sox over the Baltimore Orioles.

Just more than a year ago on Patriots' Day, two bombs went off near the finish line less than a mile from Fenway Park about an hour after the Red Sox beat the Tampa Bay Rays. Three people were killed and more than 260 injured.

"After the game, we used to stick around and go down Boylston (Street)," Ortiz said. "I'm going to pick out a spot where I can see things, or whatever, because I love to go down there."

In what figures to be an emotional finale to this four-game set, Boston will play at its traditional 11 a.m. Patriots' Day start time.

Five days after last year's bombing, Ortiz spoke emotionally to the Fenway Park crowd at Boston's first home game following the tragedy. The Red Sox, who would later win the 2013 World Series, honored first responders, and Ortiz told fans: "Nobody is going to dictate our freedom," bringing a loud cheer from the crowd.

"I think Monday is going to be a day that everybody's going to focus as a citizen, focusing on the history of what happened before," he said. "I think it's going to be very emotional and there's going to be happiness around, too, more than sadness, because of the way this city bounced back."

The Red Sox (9-10) held a stirring ceremony prior to Sunday night's wild 6-5 win over the Orioles (8-9) to honor victims of the bombings along with law enforcement officials, medical personnel, runners and race volunteers.

Boston manager John Farrell said pregame work will be scaled back Monday morning before the Red Sox try to take three of four from their AL East rivals.

Ortiz, Jonny Gomes and Dustin Pedroia had two hits apiece Sunday, with Gomes belting a three-run home run in the sixth inning to help Boston overcome a 5-0 deficit. Pedroia then scored the game-winning run with two outs in the ninth on David Lough's throwing error, giving the Red Sox their fourth win in five games.

They'll try to provide Clay Buchholz (0-1, 5.51 ERA) with some run support after giving him a total of two in his last two starts. He allowed three runs - two earned - over six innings in a 6-4, 14-inning road win over the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday.

The right-hander has pitched well at Fenway against the Orioles, going 4-1 with a 1.74 ERA in seven career starts, and he's won four straight outings in the series - also behind a 1.74 ERA.

Now he'll try to cool off Adam Jones, who matched a career high with four hits Sunday and is 9 for 17 with two doubles over his last four games. Wieters also went 2 for 5 Sunday, raising his average to .321.

Jones and Wieters, however, are a combined 12 for 57 (.211) with two homers when facing Buchholz.

Baltimore starter Wei-Yin Chen (2-1, 4.76) seeks his third straight victory after allowing one run and five hits over 6 1-3 innings last Monday in a 7-1 home win over Tampa Bay.

Chen, however, has had a rough time lately against Boston. He's 0-2 with a 7.97 ERA while giving up 40 hits in 20 1-3 innings in his last four starts in the series.

The left-hander could have his hands full with Pedroia, who is 11 for 22 lifetime in their matchups. The All-Star second baseman is also batting .460 over an 11-game hitting streak versus Baltimore.
