Red Sox Rookie Roman Anthony Undergoes MRI for Oblique Injury

News summary

Boston Red Sox rookie outfielder Roman Anthony left a game against the Cleveland Guardians due to left oblique tightness and is scheduled for an MRI to determine the severity of the injury. Anthony, a key contributor to Boston's strong second-half performance and playoff push, felt the tightness during a check swing before striking out in the fourth inning and did not return to the field. The 21-year-old, who is batting .292 with an .859 OPS and signed an eight-year, $130 million contract extension, expressed uncertainty about the injury's severity and potential time on the injured list. This injury adds to the Red Sox's outfield challenges, with right fielder Wilyer Abreu still recovering from a calf strain. Manager Alex Cora confirmed Anthony's soreness and the need for further evaluation after the MRI. Anthony's absence would be a significant blow to Boston, which is in a tight race for the AL East lead.
