Giants right-hander Matt Cain suffered a contusion on his elbow during Saturday's game, leaving him "doubtful," according to manager Bruce Bochy, to be available to pitch in Tuesday's All-Star Game.Cain was not as willing to commit to missing what would be his first All-Star Game. He said he's hoping to be able to pitch an inning in St. Louis. The Giants, however, aren't likely to let him take any chances. Cain is expected to throw on Sunday to see how he feels.
Cain, 24, is 10-2 with a 2.38 ERA. He was hit in the elbow by a line drive in the second inning of Saturday's game against the Padres. He went for X-rays, which showed only the contusion.
