The Red Sox announced a pair of successful surgeries on Tuesday, including catcher Christian Vazquez.
According to the team, Vazquez underwent a successful pinning procedure on his broken right pinky at Newton-Wellesley Hospital. Dr. Matt Leibman performed the surgery, which is expected to sideline Vazquez for six to eight weeks.
Vazquez broke his finger on Saturday night while sliding into second as part of a delayed steal against the Royals.
The team also announced that infielder Marco Hernandez, who has been sidelined since spring training, underwent a successful left shoulder anterior stability revision at The Vail Medical Center/Steadman Clinic, in Colorado. The surgery was performed by Dr. Matthew Provencher.
Hernandez will be sidelined for the rest of the season.
