Yankees 1B Rizzo exits loss after HBP in seventh
Written by I Dig SportsNEW YORK -- New York Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo left Saturday's 9-4 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates after being hit on the right hand in the seventh inning.
Rizzo was hit on the bottom of his hand by Ryan Borucki's 1-2 slider leading off the seventh. Rizzo winced in pain and stayed in after being checked out by head athletic trainer Tim Lentych.
After the Yankees batted in the seventh, Oswaldo Cabrera moved over from shortstop and Anthony Volpe entered at shortstop.
Rizzo missed 62 games with a fractured right forearm after colliding with Red Sox reliever Brennan Bernardino in the seventh inning on June 16 at Fenway Park. He is hitting .228 with eight homers and 35 RBIs in 92 games this season, including .380 (8-for-21) since returning from the injured list on Sept. 1.
