Duvall will be on the bench for Saturday's game against Baltimore, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

EDGE Analysis

Duvall finds himself on the bench for the first time since Aug. 18. He owns a 1.043 OPS since his last off day but has gone 0-for-13 with 10 strikeouts in his last three games, so a rest is probably called for. Wilyer Abreu will take over in center field.

Duvall went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Duvall is feeling it right now. Sunday's home run was his eighth in the last 13 games. He's hit safely in 12 of those 13 games, slashing .408/.463/.1020 with six doubles, 16 RBI and 11 runs scored. The Red Sox are still in the playoff hunt -- 5.5 games behind the final wild card spot -- and manager Alex Cora will operate as such. That means sending the veteran Duvall out there daily until postseason hopes are extinguished.

EDGE Analysis

Duvall popped a go-ahead, three-run home run one pitch after fouling a ball off his right foot in Wednesday's win over the Astros and was noticeably gimpy running around the bases. He finished out that contest, though, and is back in there for Thursday's afternoon tilt. Duvall will be trying to make it four games in a row with a home run.

Duvall fouled a ball off his right foot during Wednesday's 7-5 extra-inning win over the Astros, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The incident happened in the 10th inning, and Duvall, who was in obvious pain, was attended to by a member of the team's training staff. When play resumed, Duvall whacked the next pitch, a low-and-inside sinker from Kendall Graveman, into the left-field seats for a go-ahead three-run home run. "Man, I honestly don't know how I hit it after what I did," Duvall said. The club presumably will evaluate Duvall leading into Thursday's series finale. He's had a monster series thus far, going 7-for-13 with two doubles, seven RBI and a home run in all three games.

He's 5-for-9 (.555) and has logged a double and a home run in each contest while driving in four batters. Tuesday's long ball was Duvall's 13th of the campaign, surpassing his 2022 total (86 games) after appearing in 63 games so far this year.
