Pedroia (concussion) is back in the lineup Friday against the Blue Jays, Gordon Edes of ESPNBoston.com reports.
As of Tuesday, Pedroia was still experiencing concussion symptoms after taking a forearm to the head last week, but he will slot back in Friday with clearance from an independent doctor. While Pedroia has maintained a .280 average since the intermission, his second-half OBP is all the way down at .319.
