J.D. Martinez is back in the lineup as the Boston Red Sox play their penultimate game of the season.

The Boston Red Sox’s lineup has been all over the place recently as the season winds down. Boston has been dealing with a multitude of injuries, including one to right fielder Mookie Betts, and therefore the starting lineup has been a revolving door each day.

Both Rafael Devers and Xander Bogaerts will stay in the starting nine as they continue their remarkable seasons. Sandy Leon will be behind the plate and hitting ninth, while Chris Owings will join the lineup and play second base.

Jhoulys Chacin will start for the Red Sox as they utilize the bullpen day approach. He’ll be opposed by John Means.

Here are the lineups for both teams:

BOSTON RED SOX (83-77)

Rafael Devers, 3B
