Xander Bogaerts ‘Trying To Get Timing Back’ At Plate Before All-Star Break

Xander Bogaerts recently missed two games with left groin tightness and has been a bit rusty at the plate as a result.

The Boston Red Sox shortstop started to refind his groove Wednesday night, blasting a two-run home run in Boston’s 8-2 loss to the Texas Rangers at Globe Life Park.

The homer shows Bogaerts is starting to feel comfortable at the plate as he works to get his timing back before the Major League Baseball All-Star break.
