Cleveland Guardians pitcher exits game with left elbow contusion
Summary

Cleveland Guardians pitcher Tim Herrin left Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Twins after suffering a left elbow contusion. Herrin was struck by a ball hit by Royce Lewis, leading to immediate frustration as he signaled for a trainer. Thankfully, X-rays confirmed no fracture. Manager Stephen Vogt noted that Herrin will require time to recover, but the absence of a break is a relief for the team. The Guardians may consider bullpen options to bolster their depth ahead of the All-Star break.
