Manny Machado has a small fracture in his left hand and the San Diego Padres aren't sure if he will require a stint on the injured list.

Machado was hurt when he was hit by a pitch in Monday night's 4-0 win against the Kansas City Royals. X-rays that night didn't show a fracture, but he had a CT scan and MRI on Tuesday that revealed a fractured metacarpal.

He said he hasn't tried gripping a bat since he got hurt.

"We're kind of giving it a couple of days to let the bone heal for a little bit before we move on to something else," Machado said.
