Tanner Houck logs three innings in second minor league rehab appearance

Red Sox pitcher Tanner Houck made his second rehab appearance with Double-A Portland on Friday night against Binghamton. The right-hander, who underwent Tommy John surgery in August 2025, entered in the fourth inning and threw 48 pitches. He allowed one earned run on one hit with four strikeouts and one walk over three innings of work. The appearance followed an initial outing on Tuesday as Houck works toward a potential return to the Red Sox pitching staff during the 2026 playoff run. Medical staff will monitor the progress of his elbow before determining if he will move to Triple-A Worcester for his next assignment. Portland held an 8-2 lead when Houck finished his stint on the mound.
