Pedoria taking Grounders On Knees At Fenway
BOSTON (AP) – Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia took
grounders while on both knees before the Red Sox took batting
practice prior to their game against the Tampa Bay Rays on
Wednesday night.
Pedroia broke a bone in his left foot when he fouled a ball of
it last Friday night in San Francisco and is expected to be out
approximately six weeks.
The 2008 AL MVP warmed up on the edge of the grass in front of
his second base position, playing catch while on both knees. Then
he took grounders and flipped the ball to a coach standing next to
him.
When he was done, he used crutches to get off the field. His
foot is in a protective boot.
