Sizemore's knee OK after getting plunked

TAMPA, Fla. -- Phillies left fielder Grady Sizemore left Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Yankees after getting hit on his right knee with a pitch in the fourth inning.

Jordan Danks replaced Sizemore as a pinch-runner.

"Just precautionary," Phillies manager Ryne Sandberg said. "He got hit on the meat in the back. He felt fine."
