ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Hanley Ramirez missed his second game in a row Friday night, and it might be a while before he returns to the Boston Red Sox lineup.
Ramirez underwent an MRI exam before Friday night's game against the Tampa Bay Rays to determine the cause of persistent soreness in his left biceps. The Red Sox were still awaiting results of the test.
"I don't have a return back back in the lineup either," manager John Farrell said.
Ramirez has dealt with sore shoulders for most of the season.
