BOSTON -- Injuries continue to pile up for the Boston Red Sox as the team placed designated hitter Masataka Yoshida on the injured list prior to Wednesday's game.
Yoshida jammed his hand Sunday and becomes the 13th Red Sox player to hit the IL this season.
Yoshida joins shortstop Trevor Story and first baseman Triston Casas as Opening Day starters who are now sidelined. Story is out for the season after surgery to repair a fractured shoulder, while Casas is out for at least a few weeks with torn cartilage in his rib cage.
