After getting the night off against a left-handed starter, Carl Crawford is back in the lineup for the Boston Red Sox, and he's batting leadoff. Hopefully, a night off is just what Boston's $142 million left fielder needed, as the Red Sox hit the field at Fenway Park looking to win game three of their four game weekend set with the Toronto Blue Jays.
