For the fourth consecutive recreation, the Purple Sox are dealing with a left-handed starter, and so for the fourth consecutive recreation, they’ve loaded up the lineup with right-handed bats. Nate Eaton, Romy Gonzalez, Rob Refsnyder, Trevor Story and Ceddanne Rafaela make up 5 of the primary six spots within the lineup tonight.
Nonetheless, what may be much more telling is the one left-handed bat as soon as once more in and close to the highest of the lineup: Roman Anthony, slashing .386/.426/.568 over his final ten video games, is batting third. Together with his first profession house run at Fenway Park final night time, he’s changing into a staple of the following nice Purple Sox crew proper earlier than our eyes.
