BALTIMORE _ It's not a common injury caused by a hit-by-pitch, but then again it's been an uncommon season for the Yankees when it comes to injuries.
The Yankees pulled the plug on Giancarlo Stanton's rehab assignment Wednesday, announcing the outfielder was dealing with "left calf tightness." He'll be shut down 7-10 days.
"He has a minor strain in the calf," Aaron Boone said. "He kind of thinks it's still a result of that pitch he got hit (by). He obviously got through the game the other day, but there's a little bit of soreness in there."
