Pina gets good news after MRI on shoulder

ST. LOUIS -- Catcher Manny Pina expressed relief upon rejoining the Brewers on Friday after an MRI of his left shoulder in Milwaukee revealed no structural damage from a collision with Cubs infielder Javier Baez on Wednesday.

Pina and Baez tangled at second base in the Brewers' loss at Wrigley Field, and the Milwaukee backstop said he felt movement in his shoulder when Baez tumbled over him. Two days later, Pina took about 20 swings in the batting cage at Busch Stadium and said that while he was still sore, he hoped to be back in game shape by Saturday night.
