The lefty picked up the ball and threw to first to get the ultimate out of the inning after which instantly winced in ache.
He put his face in his glove, walked to the dugout after which headed again to the clubhouse.
“As quickly because the ball hit me, I knew I wasn’t going to have the ability to proceed,” he stated, earlier than joking. “I want to enhance my pitches in order that doesn’t occur once more.”
Suárez stated the ball hit him on the a part of the thumb that’s extra muscle than bone. There’s irritation and he stated he would know in a few days whether or not he’ll be capable to make his subsequent scheduled begin.
“Glad to see he’s doing OK and hope he will get higher quickly,” stated Bryce Harper, who homered within the win.
Suárez retired all six batters he confronted, placing out two. He started play on Saturday second within the NL in ERA (1.75), first in opponents’ batting common (.171), first in WHIP (0.82) and sixth in strikeouts (77).
