The Red Sox got another glimpse at their ace on the mound Wednesday, as starting pitcher Chris Sale continues to work his way back from undergoing Tommy John Surgery in March 2020.
Sale struck out three of four batters he faced in a simulated inning of action at Fenway Park, per Alex Speier of The Boston Globe. Sale reached as high as 95 mph.
Red Sox manager Alex Cora called Sale’s inning “eye-opening” in a press conference on Zoom transcribed by reporters.
