"Those are tough circumstances," Lovullo said Sunday before the D-backs faced the Giants. "Anytime you put on the uniform and step on the field, whether it's in practice or a game, you're at risk. We know these things happen. It's all been outlined to the players from Day 1, that injuries are part of the game.

"We're not really concerned when or how it happens. They were competing, they were doing their best and unfortunately he just was injured."

Bracho gave up a hit and struck out one in his two-thirds of an inning. He limped around the mound after delivering a pitch to Team Italy's Gavin Cecchini at Estadio de Beisbol Charros de Jalisco in Guadalajara, Mexico.
