Second baseman Trevor Story and reliever Matt Strahm exited Tuesday's game vs. the Tampa Bay Rays with injuries. Story suffered a right-hand contusion during his second at-bat of the game in the fifth inning. He was drilled in the hand by Rays starter Corey Kluber while swinging at an inside pitch.
Strahm suffered a left-wrist contusion after being struck by a comebacker off the bat off Rays catcher Francisco Mejia. Both players will receive X-rays after the game.
