The Miami Marlins breathed a sigh of relief when they learned the X-rays taken on third baseman Brian Anderson’s elbow were negative on Tuesday night. Anderson suffered the injury while crashing into the right centerfield wall as he tried to make a play on Juan Soto’s two-run home run in the first inning.
The Marlins lost the game 3-2, but losing Anderson could have had a far greater impact on the team’s second half of the 2019 season. He was replaced in the game by Yadiel Rivera.
