PHILADELPHIA -- Andrelton Simmons received some encouraging news after an X-ray was performed after Saturday night's 12-2 loss to the Phillies at Citizens Bank Park. But the Braves will not update the status of the Gold Glove shortstop's injured right thumb until Sunday morning.
Simmons's right hand was partially wrapped as he made his way back toward the visitor's clubhouse after undergoing the X-ray exam that revealed no fracture to his right thumb. But he underwent futher evaluation in the trainer's room and told a club representative that he would wait until Sunday to discuss his situation.
