FORT MEYERS, Fla. (AP) -Red Sox pitcher Josh Beckett will likely miss the team’s upcoming trip to Japan.
Pitching coach John Farrell said Sunday an official announcement will be made by Boston manager Terry Francona.
Beckett threw Sunday for the first time since he hurt his back eight days ago. He threw to Farrell from flat ground and was expected to do the same the next two days. Farrell said the ace right-hander would throw from the bullpen mound on Thursday.
The team leaves Wednesday for four games in Tokyo.
Beckett suffered back spasms when he threw his first warmup pitch before a game against Florida.
