Mirabelli injury update: PawSox catcher Kevin Cash summoned to Boston »

Mirabelli update

Red Sox catcher Doug Mirabelli left the game after the first inning with a strained right calf. He suffered the injury running the bases.

With Boston's backup catcher now hurt, maybe the Red Sox will have to call up a catcher from Pawtucket instead of inserting outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury after today's afternoon game.

The only problem is the PawSox are playing in Ottawa and it would be a close call to get Kevin Cash to Boston on time for tonight's game. Another solution, the Sea Dogs are at home, so getting Dusty Brown here would be more logical. This scenario, of course, is only speculation.
