Giants' Matt Duffy: X-rays come back clean

X-rays on Duffy's left hand/wrist came back negative, and the infielder is day-to-day, Hank Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

Duffy had to leave Monday's game after getting hit with a pitch, and the Giants wasted no time sending him for further evaluation. The outcome was really the best-case scenario for San Francisco, as no serious damage was revealed, and the third baseman was diagnosed with a contusion. He may still need to rest a game or two while he gets his grip strength back, but an extended absence doesn't appear to be in play.
