Padres' Jurickson Profar takes pitch off leg; X-rays negative - ESPN

PITTSBURGH — San Diego Padres All-Star left fielder Jurickson Profar left Wednesday night's 9-8 win in 10 innings at Pittsburgh shortly after getting hit just below his right knee by a pitch.

Profar was struck by a pitch from Hunter Stratton in the sixth inning and initially stayed in the game, taking first base. Profar hobbled into second base while advancing on Xander Bogaerts' single. He was then removed from the game for pinch runner Ha-Seong Kim after being visited by manager Mike Shildt and a trainer.

After the game, Shildt said X-rays on Profar were negative and he is listed as day to day.

Signed to a one-year, $1 million contract in the offseason, Profar entered the game with a .302 batting average, 19 home runs and a National League-leading .395 on-base percentage in 112 games.

Profar was selected to last month's All-Star Game for the first time in his 11-year career and was a starter.
