Wells Hit By Line Drive (Right Knee)

With one out in the top of the fifth, a line drive from Travis Lee hit David Wells in the right knee. Wells left the game immediately.

Red Sox spokesman John Blake:

He was examined by Red Sox medical director Thomas Gill. Imaging tests performed on site at Fenway Park revealed a deep contusion of the right knee, but no immediate evidence of a serious injury. Wells will undergo further diagnostic testing on Saturday to confirm this diagnosis.

Wells had been pitching quite well: 4.1-5-1-0-0; 53 pitches, 41 strikes.
