DUNEDIN, Fla.

Phillies manager Rob Thomson said the team is not really over-concerned at all about Bryce Harper after the Philadelphia slugger left Wednesdays exhibition game against Toronto when he was hit on an arm by a pitch.

Thomson told reporters Harper had a bruise on his right arm after getting hit by the 92 mph from Blue Jays left-hander Richard Lovelady.

Well check him tomorrow but its a contusion in the triceps area, Thomson said, according to NBC Sports Philadelphia, which said Harper had previously been scheduled for a day off on Thursday.

Four players were hit by pitches in the game.

Lovelady also was charged with a wild pitch.

Its early spring training so guys dont have their command down, Thomson said.

There were a bunch of guys hit today.

I cant speak for the kid but maybe he was a little nervous, its Bryce Harper.

Its baseball..
