www.si.com/mlb/red-sox Red Sox Fans Can Exhale After Roman Anthony's Latest Injury Update

Roman Anthony — who was originally slated to bat third in Boston’s lineup on Monday as the team’s right fielder — was scratched just before the start of the game. Boston later announced that the promising rookie outfielder was taken out of action due to “mid-back tightness.”

Roman Anthony will miss his second straight game with back tightness Tuesday night, but the Boston Red Sox don't expect their rookie phenom to be out for long.
