NEW YORK - Yankees catcher Gary Sánchez doesn’t anticipate missing significant time after being hit in his right hand by a foul ball Saturday. Sánchez was pulled from the game an inning later and sent for X-rays, which were negative. Sánchez’s throwing hand was unprotected when Tampa Bay’s Randy Arozarena tipped a pitch that appeared to hit Sánchez on the knuckles in the fourth inning. There were no runners on base when Sánchez was hit, and he admitted he forgot to hide his right hand behind his leg or body while waiting for the pitch, leaving it exposed. ___More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/MLBLoading...
