Red Sox Pitcher Ranger Suarez Leaves 7-5 Win over Angels because of Injury
The injury adds to Boston’s rotation concerns, with the team already weighing Triple-A options and six games left before the All-Star break.
- On Sunday, Boston Red Sox pitcher Ranger Suarez exited his start against the Los Angeles Angels in the third inning due to left adductor tightness, sustained while leaping for a groundball during the team's 7-5 win.
- The injury arrives at a difficult time for the left-hander, who was named an American League All-Star on Saturday in his first season with the Red Sox.
- Recounting the moment, Suarez said he felt a 'big pinch around the groin area' while throwing to Jo Adell; he had thrown 53 pitches, including 37 for strikes, before exiting.
- Boston interim manager Chad Tracy said he remains unsure if Suarez requires an MRI, noting, 'I don't have a feel on that yet,' as the team plans to evaluate the pitcher's condition on Monday.
- With Connelly Early recently placed on the injured list, the Red Sox must now consider internal rotation options including Patrick Sandoval and Brayan Bello to address depth concerns.
