Boston Red Sox place Enrique Hernandez on 10-day injured list with right hip flexor strain

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Centerfielder Enrique Hernandez, who capped off a comeback victory Tuesday night with a putout in a rare appearance at shortstop, was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday by the Boston Red Sox.

Hernandez has been bothered recently by a right hip flexor strain, Boston manager Alex Cora said in his pregame availability before the third game of his team's series with the Los Angeles Angels. Cora mentioned that Hernandez been playing through the pain with the team on a hot streak, but he thinks the veteran outfielder just needs some down time.
