Boston Red Sox reliever Carson Smith, who injured his shoulder last month throwing his glove in frustration, will have surgery on Wednesday and is likely done for the season, manager Alex Cora said.
Smith suffered a subluxation of his right shoulder when he threw his glove in the dugout after allowing an eighth-inning homer to the Oakland Athletics' Khris Davis on May 14. The Red Sox lost the game 6-5.
Smith was 1-1 with a 3.77 ERA in 18 games before the injury. He was acquired from Seattle before the 2016 season to be a setup man for closer Craig Kimbrel but has been limited to 29 games for the Red Sox.
