Lineup

BOSTON RED SOX TEXAS RANGERS
Mike Aviles, SS Ian Kinsler, 2B
Dustin Pedroia, 2B Elvis Andrus, SS
Adrian Gonzalez, 1B Josh Hamilton, LF
David Ortiz, DH Adrian Beltre, 3B
Kevin Youkilis, 3B Michael Young, DH

Yes, that would be Mike Napoli batting seventh. I know he's off to a slow start (ditto Nelson Cruz), but geeze, seventh? No rest for Lester today.

Well, maybe rest from 8-9, but then Ian Kinsler!

Go Sox!
