Chapman’s Abdominal Strain Rattles Giants | MLB News

Matt Chapman, Giants’ five-time Gold Glove third baseman, exited Tuesday’s game against the Diamondbacks after a bare-handed play in the sixth inning, revealing a painful abdominal strain that had been lingering for weeks. Though he stayed to bat in the seventh, he was soon sidelined. With a .235 batting average and 42 RBIs this season, his absence is a major blow. An MRI is scheduled for Wednesday to assess the severity — fans and the Giants are watching closely.
