ESPN -- Arizona Diamondbacks All-Star first baseman Paul Goldschmidt will miss the rest of the season with a fractured left hand, manager Kirk Gibson said Sunday.
"Realistically, it's eight weeks. So he's done," Gibson told reporters before today's game.
Goldschmidt, runner-up in National League MVP voting last season, was hurt when he was hit by a pitch from Ernesto Frieri in the ninth inning of Friday night's loss to the Pirates.
Goldschmidt was hitting .300 with 19 home runs and third in the NL with 69 rbi.
