Gomes (groin), who left Tuesday's game and didn't start Wednesday, could be back in the lineup soon, MLB.com reports. "We're not going to start him tonight. I want to see how he moves around. I don't know if we'll put him in tonight or not, we'll see how he feels. He's pretty sore. Hopefully by tomorrow," manager Terry Francona said.
Gomes suffered a testicular contusion after taking a foul ball to the groin Tuesday but appears to have escaped any major damage.
