Sandoval Pulled After Injuring Elbow
Saturday, Aug. 15
Scott Lauber of the Boston Herald reported Sandoval was pulled in the second inning after taking a pitch to the elbow.
This isn't the first time an errant pitch has put the Red Sox third baseman out of commission this season; he missed five games from May 19-25 after being hit by a pitch in the knee. He also saw time on the bench for his conduct. According to ESPN.com's Gordon Edes, he was benched for a game on June 18 for using the social media site Instagram during a game.
