ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia says his injured left foot is not healing quickly and that surgery may be required.

Pedroia will undergo additional tests when Boston returns home from a road trip in one week, at which time a decision on surgery will be made. The Red Sox played Tampa Bay on Friday night.

If there is not marked improvement, Pedroia said there will be “no choice” but to have the procedure to insert a screw into a bone that was broken on June 25.

Pedroia briefly played after spending seven weeks on the disabled list, but was placed back on the DL Aug. 20 with soreness in the foot.
