Pedroia's injury was discovered by an MRI and bone scan on Sept. 10, but the second baseman, a favorite to win the American League Rookie of the Year award, didn't have surgery until Tuesday and is wearing a soft cast. He doesn't know when the injury occured, according to the report.
"It was just one of those things you know you have to take care of after the season, but you have to play through," Pedroia said, according to the Herald. "A lot of guys have done that. You definitely don't want to shut it down and have surgery during the whole thing. We just had to find a way to fight through it."
