Franco bruises wrist, unsure when he’ll return

Phillies third baseman Maikel Franco suffered a bruised left wrist in the first inning of Tuesday night’s 13-1 loss to Arizona at Chase Field. D-backs right-hander Jeremy Hellickson drilled Franco with a fastball, and Franco collapsed to the turf behind home plate, grabbing his wrist before being helped off the field. Fortunately for Franco and the Phils, X-rays came back negative.
