On Jack's back
The Rays head into tonight's game with a chance to win their first series at Fenway Park since 1999. Before the game, Rays manager Joe Maddon said a lot of that will have to do with the performance of starter Edwin Jackson.
There's still no sign of Rocco Baldelli. Tomorrow's starter, Jason Hammel, flew ahead of the team and left for Seattle this afternoon. Maddon said he plans on giving newcomer utility IF Jorge Velandia a start at SS tomorrow to give starter Josh Wilson a day off.
As for tonight, here's the starting lineup against Boston lefthander Jon Lester:
Iwamura, 3B
Crawford, LF
Pena, 1B
Upton, CF
Young, RF
Harris, 2B
Gomes, DH
Navarro, C
Wilson, SS
-------------
Jackson, RHP
