The Red Sox were waiting Saturday on the fitness of Kevin Youkilis after the infielder received a cortisone shot to attempt to relieve pain caused by bursitis in his left hip.
Youkilis flew from Toronto to Boston on Friday morning for an MRI examination after complaining of soreness, manager Terry Francona said, according to MLB.com.
Francona said Youkilis' reaction to the injection will determine if he plays any part in the three-game series against the Rays, which opened with a 7-2 loss Friday night.
"Depending on how he feels in the morning, he'll either come down [Saturday], if he feels good. If not, he'll stay and meet us when we get back," Francona said Friday.
After an off-day Monday, the Red Sox begin a 10-game stretch at Fenway Park on Tuesday.
Youkilis came off the 15-day disabled list Sept. 2 following a back sprain.
