NEW YORK (AP) — Boston Red Sox first baseman Mitch Moreland was out of the lineup for Game 3 of the AL Division Series against the New York Yankees.Moreland Kenley Jansen Jersey , a left-handed hitter with a good glove, was removed from Game 2 after he hurt his right hamstring running the bases. Right-handed hitter Steve Pearce was set to start at first base Monday night at Yankee Stadium against righty Luis Severino.“Mitch is available, but he’s not 100 percent,” manager Alex Cora said.Yankees center fielder Aaron Hicks remained out of the lineup after missing Game 2 with tightness in his right hamstring that forced him from the opener Friday night at Fenway Park. New York manager Aaron Boone said Hicks was doing “considerably better,” and sitting him was a much more difficult decision than it was Saturday.Brett Gardner was back in center for the Yankees, batting ninth, and first baseman Luke Voit was slotted third in the order again. Boone said he wouldn’t hesitate to use Hicks in any role off the bench.Hicks lobbied to start, but Boone said he felt there was some benefit in waiting at least another day because hamstrings can be fickle and Gardner provides a quality alternative.“He was more emphatic about wanting to be in there tonight,” Boone said, referring to Hicks. “Hopefully it’s something that benefits him even further.”With the best-of-five series tied at one game apiece, Cora made a few lineup changes in the wake of Saturday’s 6-2 loss, inserting a couple of left-handed hitters against Severino.Rafael Devers was at third base instead of Eduardo Nunez http://www.dodgersfanproshop.com/authentic-corey-seager-jersey , with Brock Holt playing second rather than Ian Kinsler.“The guy on the mound has to do a lot with it. You look at the numbers, and they don’t look great, but if you look at his numbers throughout his career, lefties have done better against him,” Cora said. “He’s still a tough matchup, but the way Brock was swinging the bat, we do feel he can put good at-bats against him. Hopefully, he can get a hanging slider to right field and put it into the stands. That was the reason.”With starter Nathan Eovaldi on the mound, Christian Vazquez was tabbed to catch over Sandy Leon.“With Christian, we feel like offensively he can do a few things in the bottom of the lineup that can help us win a ballgame,” Cora said.Cora said Moreland had aggressive treatment on his leg during the off day Sunday. He grabbed at his hamstring between third and home while scoring on Ian Kinsler’s seventh-inning double Saturday night and was replaced at first base by Pearce in the eighth.Moreland, a first-time All-Star this season Enrique Hernandez Jersey , batted .245 with 15 homers and 68 RBIs in 124 games. He won a Gold Glove in 2016 with Texas.Hicks, a switch-hitter, batted .248 with 27 homers and 79 RBIs in 137 games. He had an MRI recently that didn’t show any damage to his hamstring.Hicks tweaked the same hamstring in late September against Tampa Bay and missed three games. PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Pittsburgh Pirates held the Chicago Cubs to one run for a third straight game.This time, the Pirates scored enough to win it.Joe Musgrove cruised through seven innings and the Pirates snapped a five-game losing streak with a 3-1 victory on Saturday night.Musgrove (5-7) allowed one run on five hits with seven strikeouts. He has gone seven innings and surrendered two runs or fewer in four of his past five starts.“We’ve been throwing the ball really well,” Musgrove said. “The starters have been giving us a chance to win. We got two really good performances in a row from (Ivan) Nova and Trevor (Williams), so you don’t want to give up five or six runs and get rocked, and have that string of good performances end.”Pittsburgh won for the second time in eight games. The first-place Cubs had their three-game winning streak snapped after 1-0 victories in the first two games of the series.Felipe Vazquez retired the side in order with two strikeouts in the ninth inning for his 27th save.The Pirates’ three runs came in the second inning, when Adam Frazier had an RBI double after Josh Bell and Francisco Cervelli walked to start the inning. That ended Pittsburgh’s streak of 24 innings without a run scored.Frazier’s double off Tyler Chatwood (4-6) drove in Bell from second and gave the Pirates a 1-0 lead. A groundout from Colin Moran scored Cervelli before Adeiny Hechavarria hit a sacrifice fly to left field, allowing Frazier to score and make it 3-0.“It wasn’t a whole lot different than the last two nights. It really wasn’t,” Cubs manager Joe Maddon said. “We gave up three runs in one inning, otherwise you had yourself another 1-0 game. Bullpen was outstanding. Of course, Chatwood struggled. That was obvious. Offensively http://www.dodgersfanproshop.com/authentic-manny-machado-jersey , we have to get it together on offense.”Musgrove got out of a jam with the Pirates leading 3-1 in the fifth inning. He allowed consecutive one-out singles by Wilson Contreras and Tommy La Stella, but with runners on the corners, Musgrove struck out Addison Russell and got Ben Zobrist to fly out to end the inning.“He was very, very good,” Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said. “His secondary pitches were top shelf, especially the changeup. The changeup was a swing-and-miss pitch. It was the separator. The fastball played to both sides. The curveball was good. He had command of four pitches.”Chatwood, who has walked 93 batters in 101 2/3 innings this season, lasted just two innings before being pulled after walking Corey Dickerson to lead off the third. He threw 37 pitches (21 strikes) and allowed the three runs on two hits with three walks.“Just keep working. It’s the only thing I can do,” Chatwood said. “I’m fighting myself and I’m trying to beat another team. So, it feels like I’m fighting uphill. All you can do is keep trying to come back and regain the form I had in the past.”Before Chatwood exited, Zobrist homered to right field, cutting the Pirates’ lead to 3-1 in the third.TRAINER’S ROOMCubs: Zobrist replaced OF Ian Happ in the lineup. Happ entered as a pinch hitter in the seventh and reached first on an error by Frazier before taking over in center field in the bottom half of the inning. Happ had one of Chicago’s six hits Friday Logan Forsythe Jersey , but struck out twice in four at-bats.Pirates: After losing 1-0 for a second straight game Friday, Pittsburgh made two lineup adjustments, with Frazier replacing Josh Harrison at second base and Moran taking over for David Freese at third. Harrison, who had an error in the sixth inning, and Freese were a combined 1 for 7 Friday.UP NEXTCubs: LHP Jose Quintana (10-9, 4.46) will attempt to regain his form when he takes the mound for the series finale against the Pirates on Sunday. In his past four starts, Quintana has allowed at least five runs three times, including in each of his past two appearances.Pirates: RHP Jameson Taillon (9-9, 3.66) will bring momentum from his recent starts when he faces the Cubs on Sunday. He has allowed three earned runs or fewer in 14 straight starts since surrendering six on eight hits in a 7-2 loss to the Cincinnati Reds on May 22.
