All signs pointed to Trevor Story’s season ending in April after the Boston Red Sox shortstop suffered a significant shoulder injury.
Instead, a post-All-Star break development opened the door for the two-time All-Star to play again in 2024. The veteran infielder took a step in the right direction again on Sunday, playing his first rehab appearance with Triple-A Worcester.
“It was great,” Story told reporters at Polar Park, per team-provided video. “Honestly, didn’t think this was even a possibility when we first heard the news of the injury. To be at this point playing games is pretty special to me, to my family and all the people that helped me. I know there’s still a long way to go, but today was a big step. I just try to have fun with it.”
Story got a good feel for live pitching again, going 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored with a strikeout. After playing just eight games for the Red Sox, just being on the field again gave Story a quality day.
“I felt good,” Story said. “Felt comfy in there. Swung and missed, (got) jammed. Kind of did everything today. Found a barrel. Felt really good being back in game action again.”
The 31-year-old appreciated the chance to embrace family time and take a step away from the game during his rehab process. That reinvigorated his passion for the sport and the drive to return for the Red Sox.
“It was in bad shape early,” Story shared. “It was a little scary at the beginning. With that said, they had a really good plan for me.”
“It’s been fun to watch,” Story added. “We’ve been a fun team to tune in on. I think it’s been different than in the past. A lot of versatility. A lot of speed. Different ways to win. That’s the sign of a good team.”
Story served as the designated hitter on Sunday and will play shortstop for Worcester on Monday. The Red Sox shortstop appreciates the “urgency” that brings to his rehab process.
