Hiroki Kuroda diagnosed with bruised finger

The Yankees can breathe some sigh of relief as Hiroki Kuroda sustained a minor injury to his right middle finger. The team announced that Kuroda was diagnosed with a contusion in his right middle finger.

Kuroda sustained the injury after Shane Victorino laced a line drive back up the middle that caught Kuroda's finger. He stayed in the game to face four hitters before being pulled.

After his departure, he went for an X-ray and a CT scan, which showed the contusion.

It is unclear if he will make his next start or not, but he is scheduled to pitch a bullpen on Friday.
