Red Sox SP Chris Sale Undergoes Wrist Surgery After Bicycle Accident

Red Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale will miss the remainder of the 2022 season after he underwent successful surgery to repair a fracture in his wrist on Monday, the team announced Tuesday morning.

Sale suffered the wrist injury off of the diamond in a bicycle accident on Saturday.

The surgery brings an end to an injury-ridden season for the 33-year-old. Sale was already on the 15-day injured list after he suffered a fractured left pinkie finger on a comebacker to the mound in the first inning of a game against the Yankees on July 17.
