The Red Sox confirmed that Trevor Story will have surgery ending his season before the game began. After the game, Story struggled to express how tough this setback has been, feeling emotional.
Speaking about the situation, Story stated, 'I don't really understand it. I know I need to lean on my faith and believe that I'm in the right place, but sometimes we don't like God's plan in the moment. However, I'll continue to have faith and it will pull me through'.
Story immediately realized the severity of his injury, hearing his shoulder pop and feeling intense pain. Despite attempting to stay positive, he now faces another long recovery and the possibility of a third season affected by injury.
Struggling to articulate his emotions, Story broke down as he expressed his feelings.
Story expressed frustration with his ongoing battle with injuries in recent years, which has prevented him from playing as much as he would like. He emphasized his love for the game and his dedication to it.
While acknowledging the difficulty of this setback, Story also recognized others facing tougher challenges, including teammate Liam Hendriks, who has overcome cancer and undergone Tommy John surgery. Despite initial shock, Story believes he will find the strength to return.
Story expressed his determination to come back from this setback, highlighting that it's part of the game and that others in the clubhouse, like teammate Liam Hendriks, have faced even greater challenges.
Story will travel to Los Angeles later this week for surgery on Friday.
