A.J. Pollock out a few days, but setback not believed to be serious

The Diamondbacks do not appear to believe the right quadriceps tightness that cut short A.J. Pollock’s rehab game on Monday night is serious, but the club is holding their center fielder out of action with Triple-A Reno for at least the next three days.

Pollock, who has been out for nearly five weeks with a right groin injury, departed after playing the field in the top of the first inning. It was the second game of his rehab assignment; he played five innings on Saturday, going 1 for 2 with a double and a walk.

“He’s been asking his body to do an awful lot on a daily basis,” Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said.
