Share this: Dustin Pedroia suffered a pretty painful, self-inflicted injury Friday night. The Boston Red Sox second baseman was batting against Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Scott Kazmir in the top of the third inning at Dodger Stadium when he fouled a 2-2 offering hard off his left ankle. Pedroia fell to the ground in pain, as manager John Farrell and the Red Sox’s training staff immediately came out to check on him. Pedroia finished the at-bat but clearly was hurting, as the usually hard-running veteran jogged slowly down the line after grounding out to second base and walked gingerly back to the dugout.

The Los Angeles Angels demolished Boston 21-2 in a game that Red Sox manager John Farrell said he was embarrassed by. The contest was rough for everyone, as the pitching (obviously) imploded, the defense allowed seven unearned runs on a season-high four errors and the offense barely got on the board. But Dustin Pedroia wasn’t ready to give up on his team quite so easily after the game. “Yeah, absolutely we need to get out of (the slump),” the second baseman said. “We need to play better. But going into the year,
