BOSTON -- Boston Red Sox pitcher Chris Sale will get an MRI after leaving Thursday's 8-2 win against the Cincinnati Reds early because of left shoulder soreness.
Sale departed after manager Alex Cora and a member of the training staff visited the mound twice in the fourth inning. He exited with two out after walking Nick Senzel, with Boston trailing 1-0.
Sale struck out six batters in 3u2154 innings, allowing five hits and a walk on 59 pitches.
Cora said after the game that Sale will get an MRI on Friday.
