BOSTON -- Garrett Crochet quickly realized he had a numbers issue following his trade to the Boston Red Sox.

He had worn No. 45 with the Chicago White Sox since his major league debut in 2020 and the pitcher was dealt Wednesday to a team that retired the number for Pedro Martínez in 2015.

"Yeah, that's one of the first things that I realized after the trade went through," Crochet said Friday.

His next few choices also were unavailable.

"I wore 34 in college, so that one was retired," he said, thinking back to his time at Tennessee.
