Red Sox Pitcher Chris Sale Uncertain For Game 5 Of ALCS; Boston Takes 2-1 Lead In Series

Boston Red Sox starter Chris Sale was released from a Boston-area hospital Monday morning and will rejoin the team Tuesday after dealing with a stomach illness, the team announced. Manager Alex Cora said he does not know if Sale will be ready for Thursday’s Game 5 of the American League Championship Series. If Sale can’t start Thursday, Cora said he could go with left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez or make it a bullpen game, or “all of the above,” the manager said. Rick Porcello is the scheduled Game 4 starter; when asked if everyone other than Sale was available out of the bullpen for Game 3, Cora smiled and said, “Rick is the starter tomorrow. Rick. So we’ll maneuver it.” As of Tuesday night’s game, the Red Sox have a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series.
