MLB: Red Sox Ortiz getting eyes checked Monday
Associated Press
BOSTON � Red Sox slugger David Ortiz, who�s been battling a slump, will get his eyes checked Monday.
Manager Terry Francona said Friday that Ortiz has had dry eyes and he and the team just want to put the issue �to bed.�
Ortiz said Thursday he doesn�t believe his season-long slump has anything to do with his eyes. He has been hitting .187 with a single home run this season.
Ortiz didn�t play in Boston�s 6-3 win at Detroit Thursday. On Wednesday, he hit a two-run, bases loaded double against the Tigers.
