BOSTON — Chris Sale has already had a rough year. It somehow got even worse this weekend.
The Red Sox left-hander — while rehabbing from one freak injury — suffered another on Saturday, when he fractured his right wrist in a bicycling accident. Sale had successful surgery on Monday, but his 2022 season is over.
The hits keep on coming for Sale, who experienced a series of injuries that almost defied belief in 2022. He fractured his right rib cage while pitching in February, which forced him to miss the first four months of the season. Then, in his second start back on July 17, he fractured his left pinky finger after he was hit by a line drive. Now this.
