John Farrell Explains Decision To Change Red Sox Lineup Vs. Blue Jays

The Boston Red Sox have struggled to score runs since the Major League Baseball All-Star break, so manager John Farrell elected to shake up the lineup before Tuesday’s game against the Toronto Blue Jays at Fenway Park.

The Red Sox will face left-hander J.A. Happ on Tuesday, which was a factor in having Hanley Ramirez play first base and slotting Chris Young in to be the designated hitter.
