Connor Wong Injury: Hitting off tee

Wong (finger) has progressed to hitting off a tee, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Recovering from a fractured left pinky finger, Wong hasn't done much catching yet but is expected to be cleared for that soon. Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Friday that Wong could return in around two-and-a-half weeks, while the catcher believes it'll be sooner than that.
