Contreras' bruised right hand is sore after being hit by a pitch during Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Rays, but he had the initial scan of the area come back negative, Ari Alexander of 7 News Boston reports. Interim manager Chad Tracy didn't offer specifics, but the veteran first baseman likely underwent an X-ray. Contreras will have Monday's team off day to aid in his recovery ahead of Tuesday's series opener versus Philadelphia.

Willson Contreras: Breaking News
Suffers bruised hand
The Red Sox announced that Contreras was removed from Sunday's game against the Rays due to a bruised right hand, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports. Andruw Monasterio came on to replace Contreras at first base to begin the second inning, after the latter suffered the injury when he was hit by a pitch in the bottom of the first. While preliminary X-rays have seemingly ruled out any sort of fracture for Contreras, he could be subject to further tests on his hand. Contreras will benefit from a team off day Monday before the Red Sox begin a three-game series with the Phillies on Tuesday.
Lifted after hit in hand by pitch
Contreras was removed from Sunday's game against the Rays after being hit in the hand by a pitch during his first-inning plate appearance, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports. After taking a 94.2 mile-per-hour sinker to his hand, Contreras was able to take his base, but the Red Sox pulled him from the contest to begin the second inning. Contreras will presumably undergo X-rays on the hand as the Red Sox look to determine whether he's dealing with any structural damage.
