Ellsbury leading off
The Red Sox lineup is in and Jacoby Ellsbury is leading off.
Kevin Youkilis is out, his wrist still sore from being hit by a pitch Saturday.
Terry Francona spoke about a lot of things in his pre-game press conference, incuding some possible tinkering with the rotation next week, setting up for the playoffs (Wednesday's starter should be Daisuke Matsuzaka, but is currently listed as TBA).
Will blog soon on all that. Here's the Sox lineup:
Jacoby Ellsbury, lf
Dustin Pedroia, 2b
David Ortiz, dh
Mike Lowell, 3b
J.D. Drew, rf
Jason Varitek, c
Eric Hinske, 1b
Coco Crisp, cf
Julio Lugo, ss
(Curt Schilling, P)
