Milwaukee Brewers: Why did Mike Moustakas exit early?
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Mike Moustakas exited the game early on Tuesday night. What happened to Moustakas, and will he return soon?
Mike Moustakas was removed from Tuesday night’s game after getting hit by a pitch by San Diego Padres starter Logan Allen. Moustakas took a 91.8 MPH fastball off his left hand, and was replaced by Travis Shaw in the next inning.
It’s been a rough year for Moustakas’ hands. He has been sidelined with a fractured right ring finger twice this year, but hasn’t required a trip to the Injured List. However, Tuesday night’s injury was his first reported injury to his left hand.
Will Moustakas require time off?
