Red Sox make late-game defensive changes with big lead
Contreras is pulled for rest with Boston ahead by 10; Seigler takes over at second base and Sogard slides to first.
With the Red Sox holding a 10-run lead, manager opted to give Contreras a rest by removing him from the field. Seigler entered the game at second base, while Sogard shifted from his previous position to cover first base. The move is a routine late-game substitution to protect a starter rather than an injury-related decision. Beat reporter Ian Browne confirmed the changes from the press box.
