X-rays on Madison Bumgarner’s elbow negative after being hit

Madison Bumgarner

The injury news on Madison Bumgarner is positive.

Bumgarner was hit in the left elbow by a Jose Martinez line drive in the top of the first inning against the St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday night.

Bumgarner remained in the game for the rest of the inning and pitched the second before being removed.

He had a pretty nasty bump on his arm after being hit.

The San Francisco Giants southpaw underwent X-rays which turned up negative. The team later announced that he had a contusion.

Bumgarner’s status is something teams around the league are watching closely because of the belief the rebuilding Giants may trade him. Bumgarner is 5-7 with a 4.02 ERA this season but has a reputation as being a postseason star. His reported no-trade list was shared in May.
