Plays role in win
Sogard started at second base and went 2-for-5 with an RBI in Wednesday's 4-2 extra-inning win over the Athletics.
Analysis
After the A's went up, 2-1, in the bottom of the fifth inning, Sogard's run-scoring single a half-inning later tied the game. He was recalled from Triple-A Worcester on Wednesday to replace Curtis Mead (wrist), who was placed on the injured list. Sogard, who bats from both sides of the plate and has experience at all four infield spots, will be part of a rotation at the keystone along with Romy Gonzalez and Anthony Seigler.

Officially promoted
The Red Sox recalled Sogard from Triple-A Worcester on Wednesday.
Analysis
Sogard will fill the roster spot vacated by Curtis Mead (wrist), who officially moved to the injured list Wednesday. Sogard's defensive versatility could help him get into games, though Anthony Seigler and Romy Gonzalez are the likely candidates to start at second base going forward.

Back in majors
The Red Sox recalled Sogard from Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday, Ari Alexander of 7 News Boston reports.
Analysis
With Curtis Mead set to miss extended time due to a fractured wrist, Sogard will rejoin the big club to help replenish Boston's infield depth. The 28-year-old can cover all four infield positions and has slashed .257/.350/.371 across 41 major-league plate appearances this season, though he doesn't have a clear pathway to regular playing time.
