The Red Sox will look to even their series with the Los Angeles Dodgers on Saturday at Dodger Stadium, countering a left-handed starter in a big way.
Boston has six right-handed bats in the lineup, tapping into the bench against a struggling left-hander. Jamie Westbrook, Romy Gonzalez and Rob Refsnyder will all start, with Jarren Duran, Rafael Devers and Dominic Smith serving as the only left-handed options.
Refsnyder will lead things off, with Duran sliding down one spot in the order. Tyler O’Neill, Devers and Connor Wong will follow, while the double-play combination of Gonzalez and Westbrook follow, with Smith and Rafaela rounding things out.
The Dodgers made just one change, with James Outman replacing game-one standout Miguel Vargas in the outfield.
