Xander Bogaerts, who left Friday’s game against the Yankees with a hamstring injury, is in the lineup Saturday.
The star shortstop felt a tweak following an RBI single in the 10th inning of the Red Sox’ 6-5 loss.
“I don’t know what it was,” Bogaerts told reporters. “It wasn’t good, though. And I mean, I tried to do whatever not to feel it and it kind of went away for a little bit. But it wasn’t a normal thing that happens every day.”
Bogaerts said at the time he believed he could pay Saturday, and a day later, it’s clear he was right.
