PHOENIX \u2014 Diamondbacks starter Michael Soroka walked off the field after appearing to hurt his leg while warming up to start the second inning against Minnesota on Friday night in a development that could further deplete Arizona\u2019s pitching depth.<\/p>\n
The team has yet to reveal the nature or severity of the injury.<\/p>\n
The 28-year-old right-hander allowed two hits on nine pitches in a scoreless first inning. He then came out for the second and appeared to hurt himself after one warm-up pitch. Soroka met with a trainer before leaving the field. He was replaced by Taylor Clarke.<\/p>\n
With a 3.11 ERA, Soroka (8-3) leads the Diamondbacks in wins, though he\u2019s gone 4-3 in his last seven decisions following a 4-0 start. <\/p>\n
His injury comes the same day right-hander Ryne Nelson was placed on the injured list with a sprained elbow and strained forearm. Nelson (3-5) experienced discomfort after going seven innings in a 4-3 win over Anaheim on Monday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"PHOENIX \u2014 Diamondbacks starter Michael Soroka walked off the field after appearing to hurt his leg while warming…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":730569,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2388],"tags":[22,5,822,60,3190,4,148,2524],"class_list":["post-730568","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-minnesota-twins","tag-arizona-diamondbacks","tag-baseball","tag-minnesota","tag-minnesota-twins","tag-minnesotatwins","tag-mlb","tag-twins","tag-wires-bot"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/116780264538120574","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/730568","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=730568"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/730568\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/730569"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=730568"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=730568"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=730568"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
