The Boston Globe • • sports
Key Points:
- Trevor Story has been placed on the 10-day injured list by the Red Sox due to a sports hernia, with the injury dating back to May 15.
- Story has struggled this season, batting .206 with a .244 on-base percentage and .303 slugging, and has committed six errors, tying for the most among American League shortstops.
- Utility player Nick Sogard has been called up from Triple-A Worcester to fill Story’s roster spot, while Andruw Monasterio is expected to take on much of the shortstop playing time.
- The Red Sox may consider shifting Marcelo Mayer, a natural shortstop, from second base if Story’s absence extends.
