DENVER (AP) — Colorado Rockies outfielder Carlos Gonzalez has left Thursday’s game during his at-bat in the fifth inning.

Gonzalez fouled off a pitch and grabbed his right wrist after his swing. He crouched near the Rockies’ dugout while being attended to by a trainer and manager Jim Tracy. He was replaced by Ryan Spilborghs.

Gonzalez missed eight games earlier this month after suffering a deep bone bruise on his right wrist when he crashed into the outfield wall making a catch against the Kansas City Royals on July 3.

Gonzalez homered in his first at-bat Thursday.
