Red Sox Make Intriguing Lineup Change After Offensive Explosion
The Red Sox made one notable lineup change for Tuesday’s game against the Diamondbacks after every Boston starter drove in a run Monday.
Boston Red Sox make intriguing lineup change following offensive explosion. Manager Chad Tracy adds Jarren Duran to the starting lineup in left field to bat seventh. Eli White will begin the game on the bench. Nick Sogard will lead off and play second base for the second straight game. The lineup includes Ceddanne Rafaela, Wilyer Abreu, Willson Contreras, Adley Rutschman, Caleb Durbin, Jarren Duran, Andruw Monasterio, Mickey Gasper, and designated hitter Ranger Suárez.
Boston's offense demonstrated its strength in Monday's 11-1 win, with each starting player recording at least one RBI, including six consecutive innings of scoring. Jarren Duran's return adds another dynamic left-handed bat against Arizona right-hander Merrill Kelly, who has struggled this season. The Red Sox are 67-58 and maintain a six-game lead for the second American League wild-card position.
