The Boston Celtics, for the first time in Jayson Tatum’s playoff career, took the floor without their six-time All-Star for Wednesday night’s Game 2 matchup against the Orlando Magic at TD Garden. Tatum’s nagging bone bruise injury in his right wrist left the Celtics no choice but to rule the 27-year-old out, leaving it up for the rest of the team to weather the storm.

Michael Fulmer recorded just one appearance with the Boston Red Sox this season before the right-handed pitcher was designated for assignment, sent back down to Triple-A Worcester and elected for free agency. The 32-year-old tossed 2 2/3 innings of relief earlier this month against the Tampa Bay Rays, and allowed three earned runs off four hits, two walks and a home run.

Brayan Bello returned to make his belated season debut with the Boston Red Sox to open up a three-game series with the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday night. Bello’s performance was both awaited and a success. The 25-year-old took the mound at Fenway Park and tossed five innings, allowing one earned run off four hits and three walks with three strikeouts.

The Boston Red Sox have worked around the absence of catcher Connor Wong, but it seems like it won’t be too much longer until the 28-year-old rejoins the team. Wong was charged with a catcher’s interference call two weeks ago against the Toronto Blue Jays, and a swing from George Springer resulted in the five-year veteran suffering a left pinky finger fracture.

Sabol must feel so relieved that this catastrophe of an inning takes attention away from the fact that he looks like anything but a big league catcher. #RedSox
