PORTLAND, Maine — Red Sox left fielder Roman Anthony will play in a baseball game Tuesday for the first time in three-and-a-half months.
Anthony will serve as the designated hitter and bat second as he begins a rehab ******* ignment with Double-A Portland. First pitch at Hadlock Field against Reading is scheduled for 6:05 p.m.
"I was driving here today, and it just felt weird to finally be here," Anthony said. "A long process for me and took a lot longer than I could have expected when I first did it. But I'm happy that it's all behind me and I can just play baseball."
The 22-year-old tore a ligament under his right ring finger while swinging during an at-bat in Detroit on May 4.
He initially expected to be on the injured list for the minimum 10 days.
