Red Sox's Ortiz won't play in All-Star game
Published 6/30/2008 at FOXSports.com News for MLB
Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz plans to attend next month's All-Star game, but won't play due to his injured left wrist.
Ortiz will likely win the fan vote to be the starting AL DH. He has a partial tear of the sheath that surrounds his tendon, which occurred while swinging during a game against Baltimore on May 31.
