DETROIT — Quarantined for three days, right fielder Mookie Betts finally returned to the Red Sox clubhouse yesterday, and he’s expected back in the lineup today.
It seems Betts have finally gotten over the flu. Now, if only the same could be said for the rest of the roster.
The latest to fall victim was reliever Joe Kelly, who was sent away from Comerica Park before the 4-1 loss to the Detroit Tigers. A while later, left fielder Andrew Benintendi threw up in the middle of the game.
“We’re hopeful that was just a one-time deal (with Benintendi),” manager John Farrell said.
