Yoshida Lands on 10-Day IL With Left Hamstring Strain
The Red Sox DH tweaked his hamstring running the bases against Pittsburgh and heads to the IL with timeline uncertain.
Masataka Yoshida strained his left hamstring while running between first and second base during Boston's win over Pittsburgh on Aug 14. The Red Sox placed him on the 10-day IL and plan further testing to determine severity. Minor hamstring strains typically sideline players a couple of weeks, while Grade 2 strains can take a month or more. A lengthy absence could threaten his availability for the remainder of the 2026 regular season.
