Masslive.com's Chris Cotillo reported that Chapman was eliminated in the eighth inning innings against the Dodgers on Sunday, which was clearly an injury.
After entering the game for the eighth time, Chapman walked past the first two batsmen he faced and lured shohei ohtani to fly the ball, the first game. The Red Sox sent a coach to visit with Chapman after the Bat, and manager Alex Cora decided to pull his right hand out of the game. Although the nature of Chapman's injury may not be clarified until the end of the game, his four-hole fastball averaged just 94.6 miles per hour, below his season average of 4 ticks.
