Ceddanne Rafaela is “ok” after being hit in hand
Rafaela to play in Futures Game
After being hit in the hand, almost similar to Trevor Story, reports surfaced hours later that Ceddanne Rafaela would undergo X-rays.
Those X-rays came back negative.
He was listed as day-to-day and will still participate in Futures Game on Saturday, July 16.
“Ceddanne Rafaela, who got hit on the hand in Double-A Portland’s game yesterday (almost identical to the Story hit-by-pitch), underwent X-rays that came back negative,” Alex Speier tweeted Wednesday.
On the year between High-A Greenville and Double-A Portland, Rafaela is a averaging .312 with 46 extra-base hits, including 16 home runs, 58 runs scored, 55 RBI and 19 steals in 21 attempts.
