ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Pink Sox pitcher Zack Kelly was positioned on the injured record with proper elbow ache, the crew introduced Thursday morning. Kutter Crawford was recalled from Triple A Worcester and can pitch out of the bullpen after starting the season within the rotation, making two begins.
Kelly left Wednesday night time’s recreation in opposition to Tampa Bay within the fifth inning after hitting Yandy Diaz with a pitch. Kelly was visibly emotional as he walked off the mound with Pink Sox coach Brandon Henry and supervisor Alex Cora.
Kelly will endure additional imaging on his elbow Friday in Boston.
