Returns as Pinch Hitter Following Early Groin Injury Scare

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds was initially scratched from Friday's lineup against the Colorado Rockies due to left groin discomfort. However, the injury appears minor as Reynolds was able to enter the game later as a pinch hitter. He made an immediate impact, going 1-for-1 with an RBI. The team will continue to monitor his status to determine his availability for upcoming contests, but his late-game appearance is a highly positive sign for his health moving forward.
