Not in Friday's lineup Blackmon (hamstring) isn't starting Friday against the Giants.

Impact Blackmon exited Thursday's loss to the Cardinals due to a hamstring injury and will be excluded from the lineup for at least one game. He's expected to be OK within a few days, but his availability off the bench Friday isn't yet clear. Connor Joe, Wynton Bernard and Randal Grichuk are starting in the outfield from left to right.

Tending to hamstring injury Blackmon's early exit in Thursday's 13-0 loss to the Cardinals is being attributed to a hamstring injury, Nick Groke of The Athletic reports.

Impact Blackmon appeared to tweak his hamstring while running out an infield single in his lone plate appearance of the day in the top of the first inning. He played defense in the bottom of the inning before he was ultimately replaced by Wynton Bernard in right field an inning later. After the game, manager Bud Black told Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post that he believes Blackmon will be OK in a couple of days, so Blackmon is seemingly on track to avoid a trip to the injured list but doubtful to return to the lineup for Friday's series opener with the Giants.

Rockies pitcher Senzatela, OF Blackmon exit with injuries

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Antonio Senzatela and right fielder Charlie Blackmon have both left the game at St. Louis in the second inning because of leg injuries

AUGUST 18, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Leaves with injury Blackmon was removed from Thursday's game against the Cardinals with an apparent leg injury, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Blackmon appeared to tweak something while running out an infield hit during his lone plate appearance, and he was replaced in the field after remaining in the game for one more inning. The 36-year-old should be considered day-to-day until more information is available.

Drives in three Blackmon went 2-for-4 with a double and three RBI on Tuesday against the Cardinals.

Impact Blackmon delivered nearly all of Colorado's offense Tuesday, first tallying an RBI single in the sixth inning. He drove in two additional runs on a double one frame later. Entering Tuesday's game, Blackmon had hit only .190 with two home runs, nine RBI and eight runs scored across 21 games since the All-Star break. In part due to that prolonged slump, Blackmon has only a 94 wRC+ across 459 plate appearances on the season.
