Right fielder J.D. Drew and shortstop Jed Lowrie have switched spots in the middle of the Red Sox' batting order, but the lineup otherwise remains unchanged for the second game of their three-game set in Baltimore.
Josh Beckett (2-1, 1.93 ERA) will try to win his third game this season after a Sox loss. Orioles Luke Scott (.450 batting average, two home runs, five RBIs), Vladimir Guerrero (.298, two home runs, six RBIs), Nick Markakis (.298, one home run, five RBIs) and Brian Roberts (.300, one home run, four RBIs) have all experienced success against Beckett, who has pitched like Boston's ace in April.
Jason Varitek will be behind the plate for Beckett.
Jeremy Guthrie (1-3, 3.12 ERA) is on the mound for the Orioles. Carl Crawford (.366, three RBIs), Jacoby Ellsbury (.393, one home run, five RBIs), David Ortiz (.323, three home runs, eight RBIs) and Kevin Youkilis (.297, three home runs, six RBIs) have all done well against Guthrie.
