Mike Yastrzemski's Hamstring Strain Receives Positive Prognosis from SF Giants
San Francisco Giants' Mike Yastrzemski, who left Wednesday's game with tightness in his left hamstring, has avoided a serious injury and will likely not need to go on the injured list. Scans revealed only some inflammation and swelling, not enough to even earn a Grade 1 designation. The Giants are going to play it safe with Yastrzemski, and with him limited Thursday, they recalled speedy switch-hitting outfielder Bryce Johnson from Triple-A Sacramento. Right-hander Sean Hjelle, who tossed four scoreless innings in Wednesday’s win, was optioned out.
