The Red Sox will look to get back on track on Friday when they face the Chicago White Sox in the opener of a three-game series at Fenway Park.
Yes, this Chicago White Sox.
Red Sox manager Alex Cora won’t make too many changes to his order ahead of a series against one of baseball’s worst teams of all time. The only personnel change is the substitution of Ceddanne Rafaela at shortstop. Tyler O’Neill and Wilyer Abreu will switch places in the order, batting third and fourth, respectively.
Substitution for AZ Alkmaar. Rafaela comes on for Nick Sogard.
