Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony has been ruled out of the American League Wild Card Series after sustaining hand and wrist injuries, manager Chad Tracy said on Wednesday.
Tracy told reporters that Anthony damaged muscles in his wrist during Game 1 of the series. The manager said the injury would keep the outfielder out not only for the remainder of the Wild Card Series but for "the foreseeable future," without giving a specific return timetable.
The Red Sox did not immediately detail how Anthony's spot on the roster would be filled or who would take over his role in the lineup for the rest of the series.
Anthony's absence removes an outfielder from Boston's lineup at a pivotal point in the postseason, with the team working to advance past the Wild Card round. Further updates on his recovery and potential return are expected as the Red Sox continue their playoff run.
