Garcia exited Thursday's game against the Phillies due to a stomach illness, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Garcia was seen grabbing at his left side after grounding out in the sixth inning, which led to speculation that he suffered an upper-body injury. However, after the game, manager Dave Martinez clarified that Garcia was dealing with a stomach illness. That's positive news for Garcia's potential availability for the Nationals' weekend series in Atlanta.
