Masataka Yoshida is set to make his 2025 Red Sox debut Wednesday night following a lengthy recovery from offseason shoulder surgery, which will lead to some changes in the Boston outfield.

Manager Alex Cora and Masataka Yoshida had a conversation before the 31-year-old Japanese outfielder began his rehab assignment July 1.

Masataka Yoshida went 3 for 4 with a double and an RBI in his season debut after undergoing shoulder surgery in October, and the Boston Red Sox completed a three-game sweep with a 10-2 win over the Colorado Rockies.
