Red Sox pitcher Steven Wright will have season-ending surgery

The hits just keep on coming for the Boston Red Sox, but not the kind we were looking for that occur at the plate.

This hit comes to the depth of the pitching staff, as right-handed pitcher Steven Wright has become the latest Red Sox pitcher to succumb to injury. The team announced on Thursday that Wright will undergo a cartilage restoration procedure in his left knee that will effectively end his season.

Dr. Riley Williams III will perform the procedure Monday at New York’s Hospital for Special Surgery.
