Making all of his starts this season at center field, Rafaela had raised his slash line to a career high .271/.314/.483 this year. But the team moved him to second base for the first time this season for Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. And after the game he spoke out about that change to note that he prefers playing in the outfield.

Red Sox hero Ceddanne Rafaela gave his biggest defender "goosebumps" with a walkoff home run Friday. "I really appreciate the love he gives me every day and the support.”
