Mike Sweeney, Kansas City's lone All-Star, left Wednesday's game shortly after being hit in the left forearm, near the left wrist, by Sele's first-inning pitch. X-rays were negative and the Royals said Sweeney was day-to-day with a contusion. Sweeney came off the disabled list Friday after missing 13 games because of a sprained left wrist. The designated hitter stayed in the game to run, but was replaced his next time up by Ruben Gotay. "I feel so bad for him. It's just a bad bruise. Hopefully, that's all it is," Bell said. "I would expect him to be ready for us before the All-Star break."
