Crawford returns to lineup

David?Ortiz was not in the starting lineup last night. But Carl Crawford — remember him? — was.

The Red Sox left fielder was batting sixth, after Josh Reddick.

The disappointing offseason acquisition was hitting .243 with six home runs and eight steals before landing on the DL with a left hamstring strain in June. He batted .307 with 19 home runs and 47 steals in his last season with Tampa Bay.
