Last day of spring training, Braves' Soroka back from injury

On the final day of spring training, former All-Star pitcher Mike Soroka took a big step toward getting back on a regular-season mound

Soroka gave up a home run while working two innings for the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday in his 2021 debut in his comeback from a torn Achilles tendon.

The 23-year-old right-hander made it through his first inning without giving up a run. The Red Sox put two aboard with a hit and a walk, but Soroka recorded a pair of strikeouts, including Chris Herrmann swinging to end the threat.
