Encarnacion-Strand was held out of Sunday's game due to a hand injury suffered the previous day,
Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSISEncarnacion-Strand was struck on his left hand by a pitch Saturday. According to manager David Bell, X-rays showed he did not sustain a fracture; however, the imaging revealed evidence of a previous fracture that may be contributing to his soreness.
Spencer Steer filled at first base for Encarnacion-Strand, who could be out a "few days," per Bell.
