Jonathan India OK after injury scare on hit by pitch; Tyler Stephenson healing quickly

SAN FRANCISCO – Jonathan India wasn’t in the Cincinnati Reds’ lineup Sunday for their series finale against the San Francisco Giants, but everyone was breathing a sigh of relief that it may be only a one-game absence.

India was hit by a 92-mph sinker on his right hand in the fifth inning Saturday. India fell to the ground and grimaced as he flexed his hand, but he remained in the game until Matt Reynolds pinch-hit for him in the eighth inning.
