Red Sox manager John Farrell confirmed Monday afternoon that David Ortiz will play first base when the World Series shifts to St. Louis for Games 3, 4 and 5.
Ortiz has only made a handful of starts at first base over the past several seasons, but the Red Sox don't want to lose his bat from the lineup and will hope to survive the downgrade on defense. This year's World Series begins Wednesday night at Boston's Fenway Park.
