Heyward to have MRI after diving catch at wall

SAN FRANCISCO — Chicago Cubs right fielder Jason Heyward will have an MRI on his right hip area Saturday after a diving catch in the deepest part of AT&T Park led to his exit from Friday night’s 8-1 win over the San Francisco Giants.
The Cubs said shortly after Heyward’s departure that he was being evaluated for an injury to his right torso and abdominal area. After the game, he had an ice wrap around his waist and said he was in pain but hoping for the best.
“Uncomfortable, in pain, but relieved nothing is broken,” he said. “MRI tomorrow to see what else is going on in there.”
Heyward tracked down leadoff hitter Denard Span’s fly ball to right-center near the 421-foot sign, diving toward the wall to make the catch in the bottom of the first inning. After crashing into the wall, Heyward immediately grabbed his right side.
