Overview

• The All-Star third baseman was hit on his right index finger by a 95.6 mph sinker from Tigers reliever Will Vest during the ninth inning of Monday’s game.
• Initial X-rays came back negative for fracture but Suárez will undergo further evaluations on Tuesday to assess any hidden damage.
• Manager Torey Lovullo said he viewed Vest’s pitch as unintentional and commended Suárez’s toughness in exiting the game in obvious pain.
• Suárez is batting .247 with 36 home runs and 87 RBIs through 104 games, marking his seventh season with at least 30 homers in eight full campaigns.
• With Arizona at 51-56 and headed for a seller’s deadline posture, Detroit is among the teams reportedly interested in acquiring Suárez.
