X-rays on Mariners outfielder Julio Rodríguez’s right hand came back negative after the rookie was hit on the hand by a 97-mph fastball Saturday night, general manager Jerry Dipoto said Sunday. Rodríguez played most of the rest of the game, but exited in the ninth inning to get tests done to see whether there was any damage.
Seattle ultimately defeated the Astros when Abraham Toro, who pinch-hit for Rodríguez in the final inning, hit a two-run single off Ryan Pressly to give Seattle a 5–4 lead.
