Lowell gets an extended rest

ATLANTA -- Mike Lowell is out of tonight's lineup for the second straight night, meaning that, with tomorrow's off day, he'll get three consecutive days off before Friday night's game in San Diego.

Manager Terry Francona said Lowell's left thumb, injured earlier this month, has been bothering him, and the team decided to take the opportunity to give him some time to help the healing process.
