TORONTO -- Bryce Harper exited Wednesday’s 4-2 win over the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre before the third inning after getting hit on his left elbow with a pitch in the first. The Phillies said he sustained a bruise and that he will be further evaluated, though Harper himself said, “I feel good. I feel fine," following the game.

This is not the elbow that has been bothering Harper, who winced after taking a swing in the ninth inning of Tuesday night’s 10-9 victory over the Blue Jays. Harper told MLB.com last week that he has been playing with a sore wrist and sore right elbow.

“He’s fine,” manager Rob Thomson said before the game, referring to the right elbow.

Asked about any concerns with Harper’s right elbow, Thomson said, “My concern lies with the concern of the trainers and Harp, and they seem to not have any concern. I think it’s just something that he’s got to play through, and he’ll be fine. … It grabs a little bit, but no structural damage. Nothing like that.

“I think it happens more on swings and misses, so I told him, ‘Don’t swing and miss.’”
