Nola was removed from his start Saturday against the Blue Jays in the top of the sixth inning due to a right knee contusion, Charlotte Varnes of The Athletic reports. He struck out eight and was charged with two earned runs on six hits and two walks over five innings.
Nola allowed his final hit of the night to Jesus Sanchez, who recorded an infield single to lead off the sixth inning after sending a comebacker off the right-hander's knee. X-rays cleared Nola of any structural damage to his knee, but he'll be monitored closely over the next day or two before the Phillies lock him in for his next start. The Phillies are now dealing with multiple injuries in their starting rotation, as Andrew Painter (hamstring) was forced out early in Wednesday's 11-inning loss to the Nationals.
