The Boston Red Sox are facing a challenging situation after a 9-0 loss to the New York Yankees. Roman Anthony, who started as the designated hitter, left the game due to discomfort in his right hand from a check swing and did not speak to reporters after the match. Manager Chad Tracy indicated that Anthony's injury, which caused him to miss 101 games earlier this season, will require monitoring. Curtis Mead has been added to the roster in his place, but this move could lead to Anthony's ineligibility for further postseason play if the Red Sox advance.
