The Arizona Diamondbacks will open their 2019 home schedule against Major League Baseball's best team so far in 2018.
The Boston Red Sox, who boast an MLB-best 88-39 record as of Wednesday, will be the D-backs' first home opponent of the 2019 season. The three-game series will take place from April 5-7. It will mark Boston's first visit to Chase Field since 2007.
The D-backs will also host the team they defeated in the 2001 World Series, the New York Yankees, in a two-game set on April 30 and May 1.
