ATLANTA — Outfielder Justin Upton has left Atlanta's game against Cleveland after he was hit on his left hand by a pitch. Upton was plunked with a 92-mph fastball from Ubaldo Jimenez that rode into the hitter in the fifth inning Thursday night with Atlanta leading 3-0. The training staff immediately ran out to check on Upton, who looked as though he would stay in the game.
