Roman Anthony suffers Game 1 injury to same hand from regular season

During the opening contest of the Wild Card Series, Boston designated hitter Roman Anthony was forced to leave the action after experiencing physical trouble with the same hand that previously sidelined him for three months this campaign. Following consecutive strikeouts on checked swings in New York, a pinch hitter took his place during the third frame as the hosts secured a 9-0 victory.

Skipper Chad Tracy addressed reporters after the final out, noting that the athlete encountered discomfort following multiple swings that necessitated an early departure from the lineup. While the skipper could not immediately guarantee his availability for the upcoming contest, the team is evaluating the severity of the setback.
