NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Milwaukee Brewers right-handed pitcher Brandon Woodruff took a line drive to his throwing elbow during a rehabilitation appearance with Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

Woodruff left the game after getting struck by a batted ball from Gwinnett’s Cade Bunnell that had a 108-mph exit velocity.

Milwaukee manager Pat Murphy said after the Brewers’ 4-2 loss in Cincinnati on Tuesday night that his understanding was that X-rays on Woodruff were negative. Murphy added that Woodruff would undergo a CT scan on Wednesday.

The incident could cause one more delay in Woodruff’s long-awaited return to the majors. The two-time All-Star last pitched in a major league game on Sept. 23, 2023.
