Marlins third baseman Ed Lucas had a bittersweet day Thursday, but the bitter outweighed the sweet.
Hours after being told he made the team, he was hit by a pitch on the left hand. It has since been diagnosed that he sustained a non-displaced fracture.
The injury will result in Donovan Solano, whom Lucas beat out for the job, returning to the major league team and serving in that role, per MLB.com.
