Brewers' Lorenzo Cain Exits vs. Mets with Hand Injury After Being Hit by Pitch

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Lorenzo Cain was forced to leave Sunday's game early after getting hit in the hand by a pitch, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com.

He was 0-for-1 with a sacrifice fly in his first two at-bats before heading to the clubhouse.

Cain is one of the team's most important players as someone who makes an impact in all phases of the game, which could make an extended absence especially damaging for Milwaukee.

He entered the day hitting .261 with four home runs and three stolen bases.
