SF Giants outfielder Luis Alexander Basabe has suffered a left wrist muscle strain, according to a report by Susan Slusser of The San Francisco Chronicle. Basabe appeared to injure his left arm diving for a ball in right field during Tuesday’s 13-7 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. He was removed from the game following the play. Luckily, the injury should not keep him from the field for long.
