Boston, July 2, 2025 - Boston Red Sox pitcher Hunter Dobbins exited Friday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays in the second inning due to right knee pain. The 25-year-old rookie was reinstated from the 15-day injured list prior to the game, having missed 18 games due to a right elbow strain [1].Dobbins, who had just been cleared to return to the lineup, made his first start off the injured list. In the second inning, he covered first on a groundout by Chandler Simpson, but came up limping after hitting the bag. Following a warm-up pitch, Red Sox manager Alex Cora called upon Jorge Alcala out of the bullpen to replace Dobbins [2].
Prior to his injury, Dobbins was 4-1 with a 4.10 ERA entering Friday, 12 games and 10 starts into his rookie season. He had been placed on the injured list on June 22 (retroactive to June 21) with a right elbow strain and made one rehab start with Double-A Portland, giving up one run over five innings and striking out eight on July 5 [1].
The injury is a setback for the Red Sox, who are currently in the middle of a crucial stretch. However, the team has been bolstered by the strong performance of Lucas Giolito, who owns a 0.70 ERA over his last six starts (38.2 innings, 3 ER) [3].
