So, the X-ray doesn’t say anything because it’s too swollen,” Suárez said. “We’ll see what is in there. Right now, obviously, I feel a lot better than when I got hit. I thought he hit me really good. Was painful, but right now, I feel a lot better. So, I pray to God for nothing to come up.”Suárez was hit by a 92.4 mph fastball from Mitch Keller with two outs in the sixth inning. The designated hitter was checked by Francona before slowly making his way to first base. Nathaniel Lowe came in for Suárez’s next at bat in the eighth.“It swelled up really rapidly,” Francona said. “The trainers’ hope was that maybe it hit a blood vessel. … He’s very tender. So, we’ll get more information tomorrow.”In his 13th major league season, Suárez is batting .208 with eight home runs and 29 RBIs.
