Instant reactions from the Red Sox’ 2-1 loss to Baltimore Orioles in Game 2 of a doubleheader Saturday at Fenway Park:
Alex Bregman dealing with 'significant' right quad injury as Red Sox place infielder on injured list
Bregman roped a single to left field in the fifth inning, rounded first base, then immediately called for the trainer and exited the game with a slight limp. Bregman told reporters on Saturday that he felt worse than expected. He subsequently underwent an MRI before being placed on the shelf.
The Boston Red Sox are only a game above .500 and Alex Bregman is about to miss an extended period of time. Does that open the door for a drastic measure?
Sean Newcomb has been living every Massachusetts-born ballplayer’s dream over the past two months, but his time with the Red Sox may be winding down.
Over time, Saturday could be remembered as the day the Red Sox called up star prospect Marcelo Mayer from the minors. But the Sox still had business to take of as Mayer made his way from Worcester to Boston for the second game of Saturday’s doubleheader against the Orioles.
Cora has Boston’s hottest hitter, rookie catcher Carlos Narváez, in the cleanup spot for the first time this season. The Red Sox and Orioles will play the first game of a doubleheader at 1:05 p.m. here at Fenway Park.
Game 1 of this series was postopined yesterday, which came at a bad time for Baltimore. The Orioles are coming off a 8-4 wn in extra innings that snapped a eight-game losing streak. Morton takes the mound for the O’s and they are 0-12 in his starts this season.
Boston Red Sox pitcher Liam Hendriks on Thursday expressed his displeasure about death threats he says he received following the team’s most recent loss.
