FRISCO, Texas -- Right fielder Nelson Cruz and reliever Mike Adams suffered bruises Tuesday night.

Cruz suffered a bruised left elbow when he was hit by a pitch in the third inning of the 13-4 win over the Mexico City Diablos Rojos on Tuesday night.

Manager Ron Washington said Cruz is getting treatment and is a little sore but should be ready for Friday's season opener versus the Chicago White Sox.

"From the way it looked last night, he should be ready," Washington said.

Adams suffered a bruised left calf when he was hit by a line drive.

Washington said Adams is OK and should be ready to go Friday.

Both players were unavailable for Wednesday's exhibition finale at the Frisco RoughRiders.
