Coco Crisp returned to the Red Sox lineup Sunday after missing 42 games with a broken finger.
Crisp was activated from the disabled list and outfielder Wily Mo Pena, who has a left wrist injury, replaced him on it.
The Red Sox also placed right-handed reliever Mike Timlin on the 15-day disabled list with a right shoulder strain and recalled righty reliever Manny Delcarmen from Triple-A Pawtucket.
