Gonzalez started at second base and went 0-for-3 with a walk in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Athletics.
Gonzalez got the start at second base in the first game since Boston lost Curtis Mead to a fractured left wrist. Mead was expected to be the primary starter at the keystone, but that role will now be filled by a combination of Gonzalez (against lefties) and Anthony Seigler (against righties).
