Boston Red Sox left-hander James Paxton limped off the field after injuring his right lower leg while making a quick move to cover first on a grounder in the opening inning Sunday against Houston.“I felt like I got kicked in the calf. Then, I kind of turned around, took another step and I felt it again,” Paxton said after the Astros beat the Red Sox 10-2, completing a three-game sweep. “I was like: ‘It’s not good. It’s my calf.’ I felt it pop.
The 35-year-old Paxton turned quickly and was heading off the mound on Yordan Alvarez's grounder to first baseman Dominic Smith. He looked back at the mound briefly, then went down to one knee and struggled to put weight on the leg when he got up. Red Sox manager Alex Cora and a trainer came out before Paxton limped to the dugout, with the help of the trainer, and slowly made his way down the steps to the clubhouse. Paxton was replaced by righty Lucas Sims after getting just two outs.
“I've never had a calf before, first time,” Paxton said. “It hurts. I was feeling really good. I was looking forward to helping this team go where they want to go. Hopefully, I can comeback at some point here before the end.”“He'll get an MRI ,” he said. “We'll see where we're at. Tough one. He's been healthy the whole season.”
