The Red Sox have also recalled catcher Connor Wong from Triple-A Worcester. Wong has gone 2-for-8 this year in the majors, and 6-for-11 in his career in the majors. In the minors this season, the twenty-six year old has slashed an impressive .288/.349/.489, with 15 home runs, 44 RBIs, seven stolen bases and 47 runs scored across 323 at-bats.
He'll likely get some starts at catcher and elsewhere down the stretch.
