The offense again failed to get anything going in the loss and the lineup took a hit, as Cody Asche was hit in the hand by a pitch, forcing him out of the game.
Asche was hit in the right hand and it didn't sound good, as Asche looked to be in quite a bit of pain. Early tests have shown just a bruise however, and an ultrasound came back negative.
There may be more tests Monday, but for now things don't seem too bad. On another note, can we think of a better word than "negative" to use when a test shows no broken bones?
