Tyler Anderson, Rockies starter, departs game in second inning with apparent injury

MIAMI — Rockies left-hander Tyler Anderson was removed in the second inning of Friday night’s game against the Miami Marlins with an apparent injury to his side or chest area.

Anderson pitched a one-two-three first inning, but appeared to be in discomfort while pitching to Brian Anderson in the second inning. That prompted assistant trainer Scott Gehret and manager Bud Black to come to the mound to check on Anderson. He stayed in the game to face Justin Bour, who singled, and then faced Cameron Maybin.

At that point, first baseman Ian Desmond gestured to the Rockies bench and Gehret and Black came back out to the mound.
