    The Boston Red Sox Friday, November 20, 2020 * The Boston Globe With myocarditis behind him, Red Sox lefty Eduardo Rodriguez confidently looks ahead Alex Speier Playing catch is among the least exceptional things a major league baseball player can do. It is a signal of routine, little more than an obligatory checkmark in a day. That is not the case for Eduardo Rodriguez. Last week, for the first time since his season ended because of COVID-19-related myocarditis in mid-July, the Red Sox lefthander started throwing a baseball. It represented a milestone, and he’s now going to be doing it four times a week. “Amazing, man. It feels great,” Rodriguez said by phone. “It’s one of the best feelings I’ve ever had.” For the 28-year-old lefthander, normal has taken on new dimensions. At the start of July, just before he was scheduled to come to Boston for summer training camp before the compressed season, Rodriguez tested positive for COVID-19. He remained home until multiple negative tests led to clearance to come to Boston. But when he started throwing in Fenway Park, fatigue immediately made it clear that something was very wrong. A battery of tests revealed the myocarditis — an inflammation of the heart muscle that in worst-case scenarios can cause death. When the condition did not immediately resolve, Rodriguez was shut down for the season and sent back home. There, he wasn’t merely prohibited from engaging in baseball activities, he was restricted from virtually all forms of physical exertion — whether it was playing with his 7-year-old daughter and 3-year-old son, or taking his dog for a walk.
