Pedroia activated, batting third vs. Chicago
Dustin Pedroia - 2B - Boston Red Sox
July 20, 2012 - 3:30 AM ET

Red Sox activated 2B Dustin Pedroia from the 15-day disabled list.

Pedroia missed the minimum 15 days with a sprained right thumb. He is back in Boston's starting lineup -- batting third -- on Thursday night against the White Sox. The 28-year-old second baseman returns to an underwhelming .266/.326/.400 slash line, six home runs, six steals and 33 RBI.
