Kyle Harrison Leaves Game Due to Blister
The Milwaukee Brewers’ left-handed pitcher, Kyle Harrison, had to leave his start in the Grapefruit League on Wednesday due to a blister on the index finger of his left hand.
Harrison left the game after allowing four runs, one earned, in 2.2 innings against the Los Angeles Angels.
The 24-year-old player has been competing for a spot in Milwaukee’s starting rotation since arriving from the Boston Red Sox in a trade in February.
The Brewers acquired Harrison along with left-handed pitcher Shane Drohan and infielder David Hamilton from Boston, in a deal that sent third baseman Caleb Durbin, infielders Andruw Monasterio and Anthony Seigler, as well as a competitive balance selection to the Red Sox.
Harrison went 1-1 with a 4.04 ERA in 11 combined appearances with the Red Sox and San Francisco Giants last season. The Red Sox obtained Harrison in the trade that sent Rafael Devers to San Francisco.
