He’s back! Dustin Pedroia will make his season debut with the Boston Red Sox in Saturday afternoon’s game against the Atlanta Braves at Fenway Park.
The veteran second baseman has been sidelined all season while recovering from the cartilage restoration procedure that he underwent on his left knee last October. He was activated from the disabled list on Friday after the Red Sox designated Hanley Ramirez for assignment. While he was with the team for the opener of their weekend series with the Braves, Pedroia did not appear in the game.
He will in today’s game.
