Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
Arizona Diamondbacks left fielder Eric Byrnes will miss four to eight weeks after breaking a bone in his left hand during an at-bat in Thursday night's game against the Texas Rangers. In the second inning, an errant pitch from the Rangers' Scott Feldman plunked Byrnes in the hand. Byrnes stayed in the game for the rest of the inning but was replaced before the D-Backs took the field in the top of the third.
