If he comes off the bench in 39 degrees and hits one out, Ortiz’s next selfie should be with the Pope.

Brock Holt replaces Will Middlebrooks who goes on DL with calf strain. John Farrell said team felt Garin Cecchini still developing.

by Nick Cafardo via twitter 4/6/2014 3:09:48 PM
Grade 1 calf strain for Will Middlebrooks. He goes to 15-day DL. Brock Holt recalled.

by Red Sox via twitter 4/6/2014 3:15:34 PM
Farrell on Middlebrooks absence: Missing a power RH bat. He'll be back on field when he's first available, but its not for another 2 weeks.

by Red Sox via twitter 4/6/2014 3:18:36 PM
Pre-game updates from Farrell: Koji, Carp, and Sizemore are all available today. Breslow will make 1 more start in Pawtucket Monday.

Rain is expected in about 9. Lets go.

by Nick Cafardo via twitter 4/7/2014 11:05:20 PM
Interesting game for Red Sox vs. Rangers. They've lost 3 straight. Never lost more than 3 all of last season.

by Nick Cafardo via twitter 4/7/2014 11:05:50 PM
Great being on NESN with Steve Lyons (and Tom Caron too). Lyons played 237 games in CF, 229 at 3B. Rare combo.

by Nick Cafardo via twitter 4/7/2014 11:12:46 PM
A nice 1-2-3 top of the first for Lackey to get things started.

by Red Sox via twitter 4/7/2014 11:14:51 PM
Rangers tie it up on Moreland sac fly (Sizemore with a nice diving catch to prevent another run). Lack Ks Murphy to get out of the inning.

Did a story once on UConn hoops getting a soccer goalie and shortstop to walk on so they’d have enough players to practice. 4 titles later …

NAVA GETS A DAY OFF; BRADLEY BACK IN RF

Sox manager John Farrell was asked about keeping Jackie Bradley Jr. in right field for tonight's game.

"We’ve all come to realize the importance of defense in right field and Jackie made two game-changing plats [Monday] night I thought,” Farrell said. “And he’s in a pretty good place offensively from a confidence standpoint and felt like it was an opportunity to get Daniel a night off his feet as well.”

Bradley was 3 for 4 on Monday with two RBIs and is 6 of 16 this season.

It's 7:10, regular starting time, Fenway has filled in, but still lots of empty seats.

by Maureen Mullen via twitter 4/8/2014 11:11:34 PM
#RedSox with 5 GIDPs thru 6 inns so far tonight. Quick scan of my records says that most they had last yr was 4: 5/6 v MIN, 9-18 v BAL.

by Maureen Mullen via twitter 4/9/2014 12:16:06 AM
Pierzynski up with runners on 1st and 3rd and one out. GIDP history fans on the edge of their seats.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/9/2014 12:24:25 AM
AJ one ball away from first BB of season.

by Maureen Mullen via twitter 4/9/2014 12:26:26 AM
Pierzynski fouling off pitches, seemingly determined not to draw that elusive 1st walk.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/9/2014 12:27:58 AM
Believe it or not, that was Pierzynski’s first two-ball (and then three-ball) count of the season Then an RBI single. Good AB for him.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/9/2014 12:28:45 AM
AJ with infield single (probably won't write that too often) scores Napoli, #RedSox trail #Rangers 9-2. Perez done, Frasor in.
