During Game 1 of the American League Wild Card Series, Roman Anthony of the Boston Red Sox was pinch-hit for by Andruw Monasterio in the sixth inning. Anthony, who previously missed time due to a torn ligament in his ring finger, appeared to have issues with his swing. He struck out twice against Cam Schlittler before being replaced. The Red Sox have not confirmed any injury details, and coach Chad Tracy is expected to address the situation post-game.
