Does Adam Duvall wear an insulin pump? Exploring Red Sox star's struggles with chronic ailment

Does Adam Duvall wear an insulin pump? The Boston Red Sox star's health has come into focus, especially after he knocked a game-winning home run over the Green Monster on Saturday.

In 2012, the star outfielder hadn't yet made it to the major leagues when he began to suspect something was wrong with him. He was tired, losing weight and more.

He knew this was going to put a damper on his MLB dreams. He decided to find out what was wrong, and his suspicions were confirmed.

He said via the Atlanta Journal-Constitution:

“I kept on losing weight, kept on losing weight. It got to the point where I was kind of embarrassed to show up to spring training looking the way I did because it looked like I hadn’t done anything in the offseason.”

Duvall won the World Series

Duvall received an insulin pump to wear during his games, which keeps him healthy enough to perform. He's a World Series champion as a result as he won it all with the 2021 Atlanta Braves.
