Anthony Seigler has returned to switch-hitting while with the Red Sox after previously stopping. Last week, he demonstrated this skill by hitting a home run from the right side. The move comes less than a year after he had abandoned his right-handed swing while in the Milwaukee Brewers' minor league system.
