Wells has ankle examined after game



BOSTON (AP) -- Red Sox pitcher David Wells had his right foot examined at a Boston hospital last night after spraining it in the fourth inning of last night’s 8-to-4 loss to the Orioles.

Wells, who took the loss last night, walked gingerly back to the mound after trying to field Javy Lopez’s slow roller. A trainer went out to the mound, but Wells remained in the game for five more batters before leaving.

Mangager Tery Francona said Wells was being evaluated at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.

Wells, who entered the game with a 15-inning scoreless streak, gave up six runs and eight hits in three and two-thirds innings.

Placed on the 15-day DL

To answer the unasked question, Halama will get one start, and then Miller should be ready.

Red Sox pitcher Wells may be out a month

April 26, 2005

BOSTON -- Red Sox left-hander David Wells could be sidelined for more than a month after spraining his right foot, Boston manager Terry Francona said Tuesday.

Wells will go on the 15-day disabled list because of the injury, sustained in Monday night's 8-4 loss to Baltimore.

The 41-year-old left-hander was hurt as he tried to field Javier Lopez's slow roller in the fourth inning. Wells hobbled back to the mound but remained in the game for five more batters before leaving.

Left-hander John Halama is to take Wells' spot in the rotation and start next Tuesday at Detroit. Lenny DiNardo will be recalled from Triple-A Pawtucket and replace Halama in the bullpen.

Wells (2-3) gave up six runs and eight hits in 3 2-3 innings Monday. He entered the game with a 15-inning scoreless string over his prior two starts, both Boston shutouts.
