Kyle Hendricks Exits Game 2 of NLDS with Right Forearm Contusion

Kyle Hendricks leaves Game 2 of NLDS after taking line drive to right forearm

Kyle Hendricks left in the fourth inning of Game 2 of the NLDS on Saturday night after taking a comebacker off his right arm. Angel Pagan lined a 1-2 pitch back up the middle that appeared to hit Hendricks in the right forearm near the elbow.

Hendricks tried to stay in the game but after making two sets of warmup throws to Willson Contreras, Joe Maddon felt it was best for him to leave the game.
