Chicago Cubs' Kyle Hendricks makes early exit with sore shoulder, set for further examination
MILWAUKEE -- Chicago Cubs right-hander Kyle Hendricks left Tuesday's game with the Milwaukee Brewers after only three innings due to a sore throwing shoulder.
It was the shortest of Hendricks' 16 starts this season.
"We'll let the doctors take a look and see how he presents tomorrow," Cubs manager David Ross said after their 8-3 victory.
Hendricks said he felt fine before the game but could tell as soon as he threw his first warm-up pitch that something was off.
"No point in pushing it," Hendricks said. "It's not something that's so bad that it's going to get out of control, but it's just not great. Something I've definitely got to get checked out to see what it's all about."
