Mike Cameron to See Specialist for Latest Abdominal Pain

Mike Cameron is seeing a specialist Wednesday morning in order
to get to the bottom of his latest bout of soreness, manager Terry
Francona
said after Tuesday's win.

The original tear Cameron suffered earlier this season on the right side of his abdomen is now healed. However, the outfielder is now battling pain on his left side.

"We should have better information on the best decision to go forward," Francona said.

Expect to see Jeremy Hermida in the lineup against Oakland starter
Ben Sheets and either Bill Hall or Darnell McDonald in center. They
will be working behind Daisuke Matsuzaka, who will attempt to get past
a poor outing at Fenway last week.

Cameron has played in just 16 of the Red Sox' 53 games this season. The outfielder is batting .277 with and .753 OPS and two RBIs.
