Cardinals' Willson Contreras out of lineup with foot injury after being hit by pitch

2 weeks ago
St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Willson Contreras was not in the lineup against the Colorado Rockies a day after he was hit in the foot by a pitch and broke his bat in frustration. Contreras was listed as day-to-day with a right foot contusion on Wednesday. He was hit by Rockies starter Kyle Freeland’s 0-2 sweeper in the fourth inning the previous night. He then slammed his bat into the dirt and snapped it over his knee. The Cardinals said X-rays did not reveal any structural damage in Contreras’ foot. Contreras has been hit by a National League-leading 18 pitches this season.
