TORONTO (AP) — Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll exited Wednesday’s 8-1 loss at Toronto in the eighth inning after he was hit on his left hand by a pitch.
Manager Torey Lovullo said X-rays did not reveal a fracture.
Carroll stayed in to run the bases after being hit by a 91 mph sinker from rookie left-hander Justin Bruihl. But he was replaced before the bottom half of the eighth.
Alek Thomas took Carroll’s spot in the lineup, with Tim Tawa moving from center field to right.
Lovullo said Carroll was hit on the fleshy part of the hand below his pinkie, resulting in a contusion.
“It’s a very dangerous spot when you’re talking about that bone on the pinkie side,” Lovullo said. “It got a lot of meat, so we’re grateful for that.”
Carroll’s status for Thursday’s series finale was unclear.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if he tells me he wants to play tomorrow,” Lovullo said. “We’re going to keep an open mind, we’re going to continue to evaluate him tonight through the night and into the morning and see how he feels.”
Carroll tripled and scored Arizona’s only run. The 2023 NL Rookie of the Year is batting .255 with 20 homers and 44 RBIs.
Diamondbacks catcher Gabriel Moreno was unavailable for a second consecutive game because of a sore right hand. A former Blue Jays prospect, Moreno was scratched from the lineup Tuesday after injuring his hand during batting practice.
“We’ll continue to push on day to day with him,” Lovullo said.
Wednesday's loss was Arizona's third straight after winning the previous five.
“These are frustrating times,” Lovullo said.

VAL GARDENA, Italy (AP) — Franjo Von Allmen edged his friend Marco Odermatt for a World Cup downhill victory Saturday in the latest 1-2 finish between the Swiss rivals, whose duels shape as the peak of men’s skiing in the Milan Cortina Olympics season.
Von Allmen finished 0.30 seconds ahead of Odermatt as both stars were aggressive and daring on the bumpy and tiring Saslong course.
It was the sixth time they combined to finish 1-2 in the 10 World Cup downhills since the Val Gardena race one year ago, including Thursday when Odermatt won a shortened race.
No other racer came close to them Saturday when Odermatt had the fastest speed close to 127 kph (79 mph). Only third-place Florian Schieder of Italy was also within a second of Von Allmen, 0.98 back on the 3.45-kilometer (2.14-mile) course.
The result was unofficial with low-ranked racers yet to start.
The 24-year-old Von Allmen has three career wins in World Cup downhills, and Odermatt was runner-up each time.
Each also won a gold medal in downhill at the two-yearly world championships held since the 2022 Beijing Olympics, and their rivalry could be a main event on Feb. 7 at the next Winter Games.
Men’s Alpine skiing at the Olympics is raced at Bormio where another Swiss racer, Alexis Monney, won the World Cup downhill last December with Von Allmen second.
Monney and Ryan Cochran-Siegle of the United States crashed out Saturday on the rolling bumps and jumps, while James Crawford had a spectacular save landing a jump.
Von Allmen and Odermatt both were on the limit at times on a third straight race day, that saw former World Cup overall champion Aleksander Aamodt Kilde skip the start. Kilde is returning after almost two years out recovering from a scary crash at Wengen in January 2024.
Odermatt extended his big lead in the season-long overall World Cup standings chasing a fifth straight title, and Von Allmen closed the gap in the downhill points race.
There was no repeat of the stunning result Friday in super-G on a hill where more sunshine on the course after 12:30 p.m. gives late starters a fighting chance.
Super-G winner Jan Zabystran — the first Czech man to win a race in 60 seasons of World Cup racing, denying Odermatt victory — had the No. 36 bib Saturday and was almost three seconds back.
Still, unheralded Swiss racer Alessio Miggiano took fifth place with the No. 43 bib, just 0.06 off the podium.
