Cameron Returns To Sox Starting Line-up

BALTIMORE (AP) – Mike Cameron is back in the Boston Red Sox

starting lineup after missing five games because of soreness

related to an abdominal tear.

Cameron was batting eighth and playing center field Sunday in

the finale of a three-game series at Baltimore. It was his first

action since May 30.

Signed as a free agent last December, Cameron missed 34 games

earlier this season with an abdominal tear. He started five games

after coming off the disabled list May 25 but experienced a setback

after playing against Kansas City last Sunday.

Cameron calls his return against Baltimore “another

steppingstone, hopefully going in the good direction.”
