After throwing just two pitches and getting one out via fly ball, Vince Velasquez left the mound with an apparent injury against the Cubs. After throwing a fastball at 87 MPH, nearly ten miles per hour below where he can hit, catcher Cameron Rupp gave a look into the dugout which was all the Phillies needed to see.

Velasquez has been fantastic so far for the Phillies this year, though he has had shoulder and elbow issues in his past. We’ll have more here when more is known.

UPDATE: The Phils broadcast just said VV was pulled for “right bicep soreness.”
