Red Sox designated hitter Masataka Yoshida leaves game vs. Pirates with left hamstring tightness

Boston Red Sox designated hitter Masataka Yoshida departed Saturday's match against the Pittsburgh Pirates due to left hamstring tightness. In the third inning, Yoshida hit a double to right field, but exhibited a noticeable limp as he approached second base. He promptly informed the dugout and was replaced by Anthony Seigler. Prior to the game, Yoshida had a .272 batting average, with five home runs and 28 RBIs.

The 33-year-old Japanese native has been with the Red Sox for the past four seasons after transferring from Japan in 2023.
