Red Sox's Connor Wong: Three hits, home run in loss
Wong went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in Sunday's loss to the White Sox.
Wong took Chris Flexen deep in the second inning for this 13th home run of the season before adding a double and a single to record his first three-hit game since Aug. 2. Wong has cooled off considerably after a hot start to the season, but he is still enjoying a career year, batting .286 with 13 home runs, 48 RBI, 51 runs scored and six stolen bases in 110 games.

Red Sox's Connor Wong: Homers in win
Wong went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run and two RBI in Friday's 7-5 extra-inning win over Detroit.
Wong doubled a run home in the fourth inning and then increased Boston's lead with a homer in the sixth. He'd gone eight games without an RBI and 11 without a home run. The catcher's unsustainable BABIP from earlier in the season has caught up to him in the second half, but Wong continues to be a clutch hitter for the Red Sox, posting a .309 average with runners in scoring position.

Red Sox's Connor Wong: Making first career start at 2B
Wong will start at second base and bat sixth Saturday against the Tigers, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.
As Smith notes, Wong has played 21 innings at second base in his major-league career, but this will be his first career start at the position. Wong homered and doubled in Friday's win over Detroit, and overall he's slashing .285/.339/.432 with 12 homers in 401 plate appearances this season. He could end up playing more at second base than Nick Sogard in the absence of David Hamilton (finger).

Red Sox's Connor Wong: Clubs 11th homer
Wong went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 9-4 win over the Rangers.
He launched a Jose Urena slider over the Green Monster in the third inning to give the Red Sox a 6-0 lead. Wong has cooled down a bit in August, slashing .289/.304/.422 through 10 games with a 37.0 percent strikeout rate, but the 28-year-old backstop has already put together a career-best campaign with 11 homers and 43 RBI through 91 contests. With Danny Jansen and Mickey Gasper now on the roster, it wouldn't a surprise if manager Alex Cora tries to find a bit more rest for Wong down the stretch, even if it's just at a less demanding defensive position -- Wong's seen action in nine games at first base, five at DH and four at second base already this season.

Red Sox's Connor Wong: Getting look at first base
Wong is starting at first base and batting fifth in Saturday's game against the Rangers, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
It's the first start for Wong in the field anywhere other than catcher in his major-league career, per Cotillo. Wong's move to first base allows Boston to start new acquisition Danny Jansen behind home plate for Saturday's contest. Since the All-Star break, Wong has slashed .289/.360/.489 with three doubles, two home runs and five RBI across 49 plate appearances.

Red Sox's Connor Wong: Fuels offense in win
Wong went 4-for-5 with three runs scored and one RBI in Friday's 11-6 victory over the Rangers.
The Boston backstop posted his third four-hit game of the season with this effort, knocking four singles. After batting just .211 (16-for-76) in July, this performance was a welcome sight for Wong since he may have to compete for playing time with the recently acquired Danny Jansen. Overall, Wong is now slashing .304/.366/.450 with 10 homers, 39 runs scored and 37 RBI across 320 plate appearances this season.
