News: Manuel offered Wright Rest
Prior to yesterday’s game, Jerry Manuel had offered David Wright the day off against the Brewers.
Wright declined that offer, to which he told reporters:
“He knows that I’d rather play than not play. He kind of knows how I felt. We talked a little bit [Tuesday]. He knew I wanted to play.”
Prior to yesterday’s 0 for 4 at the plate, Wright had hit .351 (13 for 37) with three doubles, one home run and three RBI in his ten prior games.
