Sogard will start at shortstop and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Tigers.

The switch-hitting Sogard has now started in three of the Red Sox's four games since being called up from Triple-A Worcester on Thursday, with the switch-hitting infielder's lone absence from the lineup coming Saturday against All-Star southpaw Tarik Skubal. While David Hamilton (finger) is on the shelf, Sogard could have the opportunity to see near-everyday playing time in the middle infield, though Romy Gonzalez and Enmanuel Valdez loom as threats to poach starts from him.
