Red Sox pull Drew Pomeranz with triceps tightness

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Drew Pomeranz departed Sunday's start against the Tampa Bay Rays with left triceps tightness.

What It Means:

Pomeranz made it three innings before needing to leave with the triceps injury. He experienced similar tightness in his pitching arm during spring training but didn't miss a start. Expect a more detailed report on his prognosis later Sunday but assume Pomeranz will go on the shelf for at least one start.

Pomeranz owns a 5.29 ERA and 1.44 WHIP with 39 strikeouts in 34 innings pitched this season
