Red Sox Closer Kenley Jansen Pushed Through Injury Vs. Rays
Briefly

Jansen started the inning off smoothly by retiring the first two batters he faced. But with Jansen bothered by an ailment, he became wild and walked the next two batters, who moved into scoring position via stolen bases.
Cora revealed Jansen, who hadn't pitched in almost a week, is dealing with a shoulder issue, but still had enough to record save No. 447 of his career.
Cora knew there was a far chance Jansen would come out of the game, though. 'No,' Cora told reporters with a laugh when asked if he could have envisioned Jansen allowing his manager to pull him one out from a save.
'He's been dealing with some shoulder stuff and it felt like he was kind of like favoring it, or whatever you want to call it,' Cora said. 'I checked with him and he's like, 'I'm good to go.' So, we'll know more tonight or tomorrow and we'll see where we're at.'
