Red Sox's Ceddanne Rafaela: Gets break Friday

Rafaela is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Cardinals.

Rafaela will get a break as Boston kicks off its series against the Cardinals. The second-year major leaguer opened the campaign as the Red Sox's primary center fielder but has mostly played shortstop over the past month. The lineup absence marks his first time on the bench since April 11.
