Austin Barnes was diagnosed with a bruised left temple on after he was hit in the head by a backswing during Tuesday’s contest against the Marlins.
Barnes was feeling alright and was in good spirits after Tuesday’s game, noting “It got me good... I’ve never been hit like that before”. He went through the concussion protocol without issue, but he’ll be reevaluated on Wednesday just to be on the safe side. For now, he should be considered day-to-day.
