Red Sox's Josh Rutledge: Starts at third Wednesday
Rutledge went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Yankees.
Analysis:
Rutledge was activated from the 10-day disabled list and will eventually serve in a platoon at third base while Pablo Sandoval (right knee sprain) is on the DL. He'll start against left-handers while Marco Hernandez -- once Dustin Pedroia (knee) is ready to play second base -- plays the hot corner when Boston faces a right-hander.
