MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Cardinals catcher Willson Contreras is headed to the injured list for the second time this season after he broke a finger when he was hit by a pitch during the team's game at Minnesota. Contreras was leading off the fourth inning when Twins pitcher Pablo López came up and in. Contreras couldn’t get out of the way as the ball struck his right hand. He was serving as the Cardinals’ designated hitter, so he stayed in the game to run the bases and see if the pain and swelling would go down, but he was replaced by pinch-hitter Matt Carpenter in the sixth.
