Cubs News: Cody Bellinger injury update |
Chicago Cubs star outfielder Cody Bellinger left Tuesday's game in the fourth inning with a right rib contusion.
He ran into the Wrigley Field wall while trying to make a catch and was immediately seen in discomfort in the dugout. X-rays were negative on Bellinger's rib. “I’m actually happy with where I’m at right now, post adrenaline wearing off,” Bellinger said during a postgame interview. “So, in a good spot right now with how it feels. Tomorrow morning, gonna wake up, see how I feel, and we’re gonna go from there.” Bellinger was in good spirits joking that someone needs to make sure the wall is okay. It’s a very dull pain, even now, which is a good sign. At first, I didn’t feel anything. I think as the game wore on, I got more uncomfortable. We're going to have to check on the wall. See if the wall is okay first." "It's dull. It's a very dull pain, even now." Cody Bellinger left today's game early. pic.twitter.com/JeG5pJkqxH
