Refsnyder batted leadoff and went 1-for-2 with a walk in Friday's 6-1 loss to the Royals.
Red Sox manager Alex Cora had Refsnyder and Jarren Duran swap spots in the order against a left-hander. Boston has hit righties (.756 OPS) better than southpaws (.713) this season, so Cora was hoping to get a jump against Cole Ragans.
