Chad Gaudin left Thursday's start against the Marlins in the fifth inning after taking a line drive off the pitching arm. Gaudin threw a couple pitches after taking the Justin Ruggiano liner and looked to be fine, but the Giants were probably worried it would stiffen up on him. The righty has pitched well while filling in for Ryan Vogelsong, and his loss would hurt a team that already has a lack of depth. An update on his status should be provided after the game.
