Towles day-to-day

[BigTex24]

"The rookie catcher left the game after getting hit on the hand by a Kevin Gregg fastball in the eighth. X-rays were negative, and Towles is day-to-day."

Was wondering why Ausmus ran for him..

Is there any word on how serious the injury is?

Is there any word on how serious the injury is?

Latest from Rotoworld:

J.R. Towles left Sunday's game in the eighth inning after being hit in the hand by a Kevin Gregg pitch.
X-rays of his hand were negative, but he'll be re-evaluated today. "It hurts, but right now it's not broken... I'm trying to be optimistic and shooting for Tuesday," Towles said. Brad Ausmus would start at catcher if Towles' hand necessitates it.
