Red Sox anticipate Adley Rutschman's return Tuesday as Dean Kremer earns win against former club

Red Sox interim manager Chad Tracy told reporters that catcher Adley Rutschman, who has been out with wrist inflammation since mid-July, is expected to rejoin the team on Tuesday after completing a short rehab stint with Triple-A Worcester. Rutschman was acquired from the Orioles at the trade deadline in a deal that also sent prospects Anthony Eyanson, Enddy Azocar and Kyson Witherspoon to Boston.

In a separate game, Minnesota Twins right-hander Dean Kremer delivered a seven-inning, one-run effort against his former Orioles, earning his first win with the Twins. Kremer allowed only one hit and struck out seven batters, improving on his 6.50 ERA in seven starts with Baltimore earlier in the season.

"Rutschman is expected to join the team on Tuesday," Tracy said.

The game also featured a rare "fourth out" situation when a fly ball that should have been a sacrifice fly resulted in a run that stood because the defensive team did not appeal before leaving the field.

Additionally, New York Mets interim manager Andy Green assigned former starter Kodai Senga to close the game after closer Devin Williams was placed on the injured list. Senga recorded his first MLB save by striking out two batters and walking one in the ninth inning.
