Drew Pomeranz's departure wasn't the only thing that went wrong for the Boston Red Sox in their 13-8 loss to the Minnesota Twins on Sunday at JetBlue Park. The Twins offense scored five runs in the fourth inning and four runs in the seventh inning on the way to a comfortable win over the Sox.
Pomeranz, who had a recent procedure on his flexor tendon, didn't sound concerned with his departure from the game when the Red Sox were trailing, 3-1, after two innings. He was scheduled to play three.
"The first inning, my triceps got a little tight toward the end," Pomeranz said, via RedSox.com. "I told the trainers in between that inning, and went back out and it stayed tight the whole time. Nothing crazy. Just a little triceps tightness."
Hanley Ramirez (2 of 3), Mitch Moreland (3 of 3) and Marco Hernandez (2 of 3) each had a multi-hit game. Ramirez and Bryce Brent had homers. Hernandez had a triple.
Kyle Kendrick will get the start in the Sox' next game against the Baltimore Orioles on Monday at 1:05 p.m. ET.
