Mike Matheny discusses Andrew Benintendi’s rib injury with Lynn Worthy.
“He had something grab when he threw yesterday with the ball off the wall,” Matheny said. “He’d been feeling a little bit of something for a while. Obviously, it wasn’t affecting his swing. On the throw, it grabbed him. He was fine last night. Woke up today and it wasn’t right. He had it X-rayed.”
Anne Rogers writes what it means to lose the red-hot Benintendi in the lineup.
“[The team isn’t] going to be happy that one of the guys who’s been in the lineup every day, and a big part of the lineup, isn’t going to be in there,” Matheny said.
