MILWAUKEE -- Chicago Cubs shortstop Addison Russell left Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers after getting hit in the face with a pitch by right-hander Adrian Houser in the top of the third inning.
Russell initially stayed in the game but came out after he scored.
"By the time he got to first base he felt like he was good," manager Joe Maddon said. "I saw the same thing. ... When he came back in they wanted to take a better look at him, so we got him out of the game at that point.
