UPDATE: Amy Gutierrez of CSNBayArea.com reports that Scutaro was taken to the hospital for an MRI.
11:46 PM: According to Alex Pavlovic of the San Jose Mercury News, Giants manager Bruce Bochy said X-rays came back negative. However, he?s still pretty sore and will be re-evaluated tomorrow.
Matt Cain mentioned during the game that he felt Matt Holliday?s takeout slide was late and Bochy echoed a similar sentiment to Pavlovic after the game:
?I really think they got away with an illegal slide. It?s a shame somebody got hurt because of this.?
The Giants didn?t throw at Holliday during the game, but winning is the best revenge, isn?t it? Still, this probably isn?t the last we have heard of this issue, especially if Scutaro misses Game 3.
Here?s video of the slide in question:
10:17 PM: Via these two updates from Andrew Baggarly of CSNBayArea.com, Scutaro exited the game with a left hip injury and was sent for X-rays.
10:11 PM ET: Marco Scutaro is 2-for-3 with a pair of RBI in Game 2 of the NLCS tonight, but he?s apparently still feeling the effects from Matt Holliday?s violent takeout slide in the top of the first inning.
Scutaro was replaced by Ryan Theriot at second base to begin the top of the sixth inning. No word yet on the exact nature or severity of the injury, but he could be seen pointing at his left leg while in the dugout.
Scutaro has been one of the Giants? most important contributors since coming over from the Rockies in late-July, so it would really hurt if he needs to miss some time.
