Boston Red Sox manager John Farrell has tinkered with his lineup at times this season, but we’ve never seen anything like this.
With the AL East division title locked up, the Red Sox are taking advantage of the opportunity to rest many of their key starters to begin tonight’s game at Yankee Stadium, which wraps up the final road trip of the regular season. Let’s just say that tonight’s lineup will look a bit different than what we’re used to.
It starts with third baseman Aaron Hill in the lead-off spot, where he has a mere 14 at-bats over the past three seasons.
