Triston Casas took a scary fall hustling down the first baseline on Friday night. Boston Red Sox manger Alex Cora admitted the injury was scary and serious on Friday, but did not have a meaningful update. Casas left the game on a stretcher and was transported to a hospital for tests.

Saturday morning, the Red Sox announced Casas has suffered a ruptured patellar tendon in his left knee.

No further information has been released yet regarding an anticipated recovery timeline, but Casas has been placed on the 10-day injured list, and Boston called up infielder Abraham Toro out of Triple-A Worcester.
