Werth Leaves Game With Oblique Strain

UPDATE (11:49 a.m. May 23): Werth is currently listed as day-to-day but is undergoing a re-evaluation. We can’t take day-to-day as the final decision, of course, as Jimmy Rollins was day-to-day for weeks before landing on the 15-day DL with an ankle injury.

Jayson Werth, who pinch hit for the Phillies against the Astros tonight in Houston, left the game with a right oblique strain. No word on how long he might be out, or the seriousness of the injury, but we’ll have the update when it comes.
