Cody Bellinger injury update

Chicago Cubs star outfielder Cody Bellinger left Tuesday's game in the fourth inning with a right rib contusion.

He ran into the Wrigley Field wall while trying to make a catch and was immediately seen in discomfort in the dugout.

X-rays were negative on Bellinger's rib.

“I’m actually happy with where I’m at right now, post adrenaline wearing off,” Bellinger said during a postgame interview. “So, in a good spot right now with how it feels. Tomorrow morning, gonna wake up, see how I feel, and we’re gonna go from there.”

Bellinger was in good spirits joking that someone needs to make sure the wall is okay.

It’s a very dull pain, even now, which is a good sign. At first, I didn’t feel anything. I think as the game wore on, I got more uncomfortable. We're going to have to check on the wall. See if the wall is okay first."
