Jun 12, 2024; St. Louis, Missouri, USA; St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado (28) throws on the run against the Pittsburgh Pirates during the eighth inning at Busch Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Jeff Curry-USA TODAY Sports Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado departed St. Louis' 9-4 victory Saturday over the visiting San Francisco Giants in the top of the eighth inning due to left forearm discomfort.
Arenado went 0-for-3 with a walk before exiting. Jose Fermin finished the game at third base.
The contest was Arenado's first since getting hit in his right elbow by a pitch during the Cardinals' game against the Miami Marlins on Wednesday.
Arenado missed St. Louis' game against the Giants in Birmingham, Ala., on Thursday due to the elbow injury. The teams were off Friday one day after participating in the game that paid tribute to the Negro Leagues.
Arenado, 33, is having a down season. The 10-time Gold Glove winner and eight-time All-Star is batting .257 with six homers and 32 RBIs in 71 games this season.
