Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Plays hero Sunday
Abreu entered the first game of Sunday's doubleheader as a pinch hitter and stayed in to play right field. He went 1-for-1 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored in a 5-4 extra-inning win in the matinee. Abreu started the nightcap in right field and went 2-for-6 with three RBI.
Another big day for Abreu, MLB's early-season leader in average (.483), on-base percentage (.595) and slugging (.897). He didn't play Saturday for undisclosed reasons and was held out of the starting nine for Sunday's matinee, but he entered as a pinch hitter. He walked in the bottom of the ninth inning -- one of four free passes authored by St. Louis closer Ryan Helsley -- and eventually came in to score the run that sent the game into the 10th inning, where he became the hero. His walk-off single completed Boston's comeback. Abreu has six extra-base hits, eight walks, 10 runs scored and 12 RBI through 10 contests.

Abreu (undisclosed) isn't injured and is expected to be in the lineup for the second game of Sunday's doubleheader against the Cardinals, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.
Abreu was scratched from the lineup Saturday prior to the contest being postponed and is absent again for the matinee of Sunday's twin bill, but he's apparently not dealing with an injury.

Abreu was scratched from the lineup Saturday for unspecified reasons prior to that contest being postponed, and he remains on the bench for Sunday's matinee. The 25-year-old has enjoyed a strong start to the campaign, going 9-for-22 with two doubles, three homers, eight RBI and nine runs. It's not yet clear if the Abreu is dealing with an injury, leaving his availability up in the air heading into the nightcap.

Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Scratched from lineup
Abreu was scratched from the lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Cardinals, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.
It's unclear if Abreu's removal from the lineup is due to an injury or simply the team wanting to give him a breather after Friday's three-hit effort, but Boston should offer some clarity on the situation in the near future. In the meantime, Rob Refsnyder will patrol right field and bat sixth.

Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Homer, three hits in win
Abreu went 3-for-5 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 13-9 win over the Cardinals.
Abreu went back-to-back with Trevor Story in the first inning and added two more hits, marking his third multi-hit game in eight contests this season. The 25-year-old has been on fire to start the year, going 11-for-22 with three home runs, eight RBI, nine runs scored and a steal. Though he's likely to sit at times against southpaws, he's reached base three times in just five plate appearances against them early in 2025.
