Red Sox Vs. Braves Lineups: Alex Cora Runs It Back After Win

The Red Sox will attempt to secure a series victory on Saturday, as they play the second of three against the Atlanta Braves at Truist Park.

Alex Cora isn’t going to attempt to fix what’s not broken.

Boston will start with the same exact lineup it rode to a series-opening victory on Friday. Rob Refsnyder and David Hamilton did come off the bench in the win, but will return to the pine to start this one. Marcelo Mayer will look to build off a fantastic play from the opener, once again batting fifth.

Walker Buehler will get the start for the away squad, while Spencer Schwellenbach takes the hill first.

The Red Sox and Braves are scheduled to take the field at 4:10 p.m. ET. NESN will have full coverage beginning at 3 p.m. ET.
