Red Sox, C Josh Bard agree to 1-year deal

Josh Bard is getting another chance to catch on with the Boston Red Sox.

Bard agreed to a non-guaranteed, one-year contract with Boston, giving the Red Sox additional depth behind the plate. The deal announced Friday includes a club option for 2010.

Bard played seven games for the Red Sox in 2006, when he struggled to catch Tim Wakefield's knuckleball and was traded to San Diego along with reliever Cla Meredith for catcher Doug Mirabelli.
