    It looks like the Phillies avoid a crisis as X-rays came back negative on Ranger Suarez's hand.

    The 28-year-old Phillies' starting pitcher was hit in the hand with a 106 MPH line drive during Saturday's start at Citizens Bank Park . Suarez immediately left the game and did not return.

    “Feel pretty lucky right now,” Phillies manager Rob Thomson said after the game when X-rays were negative via Matt Gelb .

    There is still some swelling in Suarez's thumb and the Phillies are uncertain if he will make his start ( via Alex Coffey ), which is scheduled to be during the Phillies-Mets London series on Saturday, June 8th.

    Suarez is having a career year this season, as he is 9-1 with a 1.70 ERA in 12 starts.

    The Phillies went on to win the game, beating the Cardinals 6-1. Spencer Turnbull pitched 3.0 innings in relief, allowing no hits and striking out six batters earning the win (3-0).

    Bryce Harper hit a two-run upper deck home run in the bottom of the 7th , his 14th of the season, to put the game away for the Phils.
