NEW YORK (AP) — Boston Red Sox reliever Bobby Jenks is going back on the 15-day disabled list with tightness in his back and catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia was sent to the hospital because he was feeling sick.
Jenks left Tuesday night’s game against the New York Yankees after throwing only four pitches in the seventh inning and said it was a flare-up of an injury he had early in his career, though he didn’t think he would be sidelined long.
The right-hander had an MRI exam Wednesday and Boston put him on the DL before the 7:05 p.m. game.
Jenks was on the disabled list from May 2-30, missing 27 games with a strained right biceps. Since being activated, he had put together four scoreless outings.
