    Red Sox's Roman Anthony Nears Return After Injury

    Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony, who has been out since early May with a hand injury, is nearing his return to the team. Anthony, who was initially expected to miss two months, has been rehabbing with the Triple-A Worcester WooSox and has been performing well. He has recorded seven hits in seven games during his rehab assignment, including two home runs and two doubles. Anthony has addressed criticism about his off-field habits and urgency to return, stating that he has exhausted every option to accelerate his recovery. The Red Sox are set to face the New York Yankees in a four-game series starting on Friday, and Anthony's return could provide a significant boost to the team's offense.
