Curtis Granderson left Thursday’s game after being hit on the right leg, near the knee, by a fastball from Cardinals starter Lance Lynn.
Granderson went to first base, finished the inning, but left the game after the inning was over.
Reporters say he smiled and gave a thumbs up to fans while leaving the field.
Doesn’t sound serious and they likely pulled him to give it and him a rest.
