Red Sox Vs. Cardinals Lineups: Kristian Campbell Gets Another Start At Left

The Red Sox look to stay undefeated at Fenway Park when they hit the field Saturday.

Granted, Friday was Boston’s home opener, but it was still successful against the St. Louis Cardinals after a thrilling 13-9 victory.

Manager Alex Cora will roll out a different defensive alignment in the second matchup of a three-game series. Kristian Campbell will get his second career start at left field. Jarren Duran will move to center field for Ceddanne Rafaela, and David Hamilton will start at second base for Campbell. Connor Wong returns to the lineup after Carlos Narváez filled in at catcher. He’ll be the backstop for Richard Fitts, who lost his first start of the season.

St. Louis will start Andre Pallante, and its only change for Saturday is Pedro Pagés starting at catcher for Iván Herrera.

First pitch for the Red Sox-Cardinals matchup is scheduled at 4:10 p.m. ET, and you can catch full coverage on NESN after an hour of pregame.
