The Boston Red Sox will change up their lineup card Sunday as they look to salvage a four-game series with the Tampa Bay Rays.
After dropping Games 1 and 2 at Tropicana Field, Alex Cora will scramble his batting order for Sunday’s Game 3.
Jackie Bradley Jr. is the only starter of the regular outfield trio and will lead off and play center. He’ll be aided by Sam Travis in left and Gorkys Hernandez in right. Christian Vazquez will bat fifth and play first, with Juan Centeno getting the start behind the dish. Chris Owings slides into the second base slot.
Nathan Eovaldi takes the hill in his 11th start of the season. He’ll be opposed by southpaw Ryan Yarbrough.
