The Red Sox have one more thing to apologize for in the midst of their rough season.

Team CEO Sam Kennedy went on WEEI’s “The Greg Hill Show” on Thursday to offer up a mea culpa after he’d refuted the host’s report that star outfielder Roman Anthony had a tear in his ring finger, with Kennedy claiming it was a sprain.

Anthony himself confirmed it was a tear.

Anthony, sidelined since May 4, has no clear timetable to return to Boston’s lineup.

“Well, listen, I need to own up to my mistake,” Kennedy said. “I mean, I was unequivocal in my response to you regarding Roman and his situation. Apparently, I missed that day at Harvard Medical School. I shouldn’t be sitting here talking about a sprain. A sprain is a tear. I was reading off of a report that identified the sprain…So, I apologize for my mistake there. I’ve communicated with Roman about that. That’s all good. Most important is he’s doing the work to getting back.”

It’s just one of several notable injuries and issues that have seen the Red Sox fall deep into the AL East basement — at 27-39, they’re 3.5 games back of fourth-place Baltimore and 13.5 behind the division-leading Rays.

A hallmark of what’s quickly becoming a lost season is the lack of clarity around the team’s injuries.

Ace pitcher Garrett Crochet, on the injured list since Apr. 29, was said to be “making good progress on the lat strain,” on Thursday, according to chief baseball officer Craig Breslow.

Crochet, however, went on to tell the Boston Globe that the injury is “a lot worse than what we thought.”

If the Red Sox do nothing else this season, they should at least work on getting their stories straight.
