Why Aaron Hicks believes this hamstring injury isn’t too serious

BOSTON — The Yankees didn’t just lose Game 1 of the ALDS to the Red Sox on Friday night, they also lost their center fielder.

Aaron Hicks left the 5-4 loss at Fenway Park with tightness in his right hamstring and will get an MRI on Saturday.

“Before the game, it started cramping up a little bit,’’ Hicks said. “It sucks to have to come out of this game. … I feel good right now. We’ll see how it goes.”

Hicks dealt with left hamstring tightness late last month and sat three straight games in Tampa Bay in the final week of the regular season.
