Red Sox CF Ceddanne Rafaela leaves game in 3rd inning on same day he comes off injured list
- On Wednesday, Red Sox center fielder Ceddanne Rafaela returned to the lineup after missing 17 games but left the game against the Cleveland Guardians in the third inning with right hamstring tightness.
- Because the Triple-A season ended Sunday, Rafaela returned without playing in a rehab game. Manager Chad Tracy had planned to monitor his workload, noting, "If we have to pull the plug early in a game just to say that's enough load, we'll do it."
- Before his exit, the 26-year-old outfielder made a diving catch and ripped a 106.5 mph single in the second inning. He grimaced while running out the hit before being replaced by Jarren Duran.
- Tracy explained the removal was precautionary after observing the outfielder repeatedly flexing his leg. The Red Sox, who have already clinched a playoff spot, view getting him healthy as their primary goal.
- The Wild Card Series begins next Tuesday, leaving the club a tight timeline to ensure their Gold Glove center fielder is ready. The team currently holds the 5-seed in the American League.
