NEW YORK — The Phillies, for now, believe Cristopher Sánchez has avoided a serious injury.
The Phillies’ No. 2 starter was removed from Tuesday night’s game after two innings due to left forearm soreness. He was checked by a doctor and did mobility exercises with the training staff. He tested out well, leading the Phillies to believe that there is no structural damage.
“I feel positive that we’re not going to have to be worrying about this,” Sánchez said Tuesday night.
The morning after, Sánchez told the training staff that he wanted to go play catch.
