Joe Ross leaves Nationals' win early due to tender triceps

Washington Nationals pitcher Joe Ross was removed from Sunday's start against the Braves due to tenderness in his triceps.

What It Means:

An MRI will determine whether or not the injury will require a stint on the disabled list after the All-Star break. Ross lasted only 3 1/3 innings before he was pulled. The 24-year-old right-hander allowed 3 runs on 3 hits with 2 walks and 2 strikeouts in what wound up being a 10-5 victory for the Nationals. Prior to Sunday's no-decision, he hadn't given up more than two earned runs in four consecutive starts.

For the season, Ross owns a 5.01 ERA, 1.47 WHIP, and 21.1 strikeout percentage across 73 2/3 innings. He's gone 5-3 in 13 starts.
