The Pawtucket Red Sox will have 2007 World Series MVP Mike Lowell as their designated hitter tomorrow night (Friday) on injury rehab (sprained left thumb) from Boston when the PawSox and the Syracuse Chiefs play the finale of their 3-game series at 7:05 pm at McCoy Stadium.

The plan is for Lowell to DH tomorrow night, play third base Saturday night in Buffalo, and DH again on Sunday afternoon in Buffalo. This rehab appearance will mark the 34-year-old Lowell’s first return to the minor leagues since the 1999 season when he played 24 games for Calgary (AAA-Florida) hitting .313. He has played in the International League back in 1997 and ’98 with the Columbus Clippers (AAA-Yankees at the time) and was the MVP of the Triple-A All-Star Game in 1998.
