(SportsRadio 610) - Chas McCormick is returning to the Astros' lineup to play center field for Game 4 of the ALCS at Fenway Park against the Boston Red Sox.

It had previously been reported that Jake Meyers, who has not played since crashing into the Guaranteed Rate Field while trying to catch a Gavin Sheets home run in the Astros' closeout Game 4 against the Chicago White Sox, would return to the lineup.

Meyers was originally scheduled to start, but was scratched and replaced by McCormick, according to Brian McTaggart of MLB.com.

McCormick, who took Meyers' place in that game, then started the first two of the ALCS in Houston against the Red Sox. Jose Siri started in center field for the Astros in Game 3.

Zack Greinke takes the mound for Houston, trailing the series 2-1. Here is the full lineup.

1. Jose Altuve, 2B
2. Michael Brantley, LF
3. Alex Bregman, 3B
4. Yordan Alvarez, DH
5. Carlos Correa, SS
6. Kyle Tucker, RF
7. Yuli Gurriel, 1B
8. Chas McCormick, CF
9. Martin Maldonado, C
