May 14 1B Kevin Youkilis leads the Major Leagues with 24 doubles this season and is also setting the pace in the AL with a 16-for-34 (.471) performance during day games this season. The well-rounded Youk has also displayed his versatility by switching positions and playing both third base and the outfield during times of need, but the Gold Glover was back at first base yesterday.

May 14 Because of injuries, Youkilis was forced to finish Tuesday night's game in right field.

Recommendation: With Coco Crisp (migraine) and J.D. Drew (left wrist) leaving the game, the Red Sox, who were carrying just four outfielders, moved Youkilis to right field. He handled his only chance cleanly.
