River Walkers news: Benintendi injury deemed not serious
The St. Louis River Walkers dodged a major injury scare when they were informed that All-Star left fielder Andrew Benintendi is only dealing with hamstring soreness after he was forced to leave their Sept. 25 game against Springfield.
Benintendi was cleared to resume play immediately, but may sit a game or two with the Walkers having already clinched the best record in the league.
Benintendi has an outside chance to be the NL MVP. He is hitting .345 with .345 with 24 homers and 91 RBIs. His batting average tops the NL and he also leads with 208 hits.
