Overview

• Wilyer Abreu exited Sunday’s game with right calf tightness after scoring on a sacrifice fly and called it “a little cramp,” labeling himself day-to-day.
• Boston does not foresee an injured-list stint for Abreu and expects him to miss only the two-game series in Baltimore before aiming to return for New York.
• The Red Sox recalled versatile infielder/outfielder Nate Eaton from Triple-A Worcester to provide instant depth in the outfield and infield.
• Boston’s active roster now carries three catchers, opening the possibility of designating Ali Sanchez for assignment to make room for Eaton.
• Abreu leads the team with 22 home runs and has batted .300 with a .860 OPS over his last 16 games, heightening the importance of his swift recovery.
