PITTSBURGH -- As the Braves have ascended to the top of the National League East, they have routinely found good fortune after one of their players has exited a game with concerns about a potentially serious injury.
The Braves once again breathed a sigh of relief on Wednesday, when tests performed on Kurt Suzuki's left elbow showed no signs of a fracture. The veteran catcher is day to day with a bruised left triceps.
Suzuki got X-rays on his left elbow and had a CT scan after he was hit by Clay Holmes' 93.
