Red Sox catcher Reese McGuire had himself a bit of an injury scare on Saturday night in Milwaukee.
McGuire had already entered the game to replace Connor Wong after pinch-hitting for him in the seventh inning of the Red Sox’ 5-4 loss to the Brewers. So, it was concerning to see McGuire take a foul ball off the top of his throwing hand in the bottom half of the inning.
The catcher tried taping up his hand and momentarily had trouble throwing the ball back to the pitcher, but decided to forgo the tape and tough it out the rest of the game. Catchers.
