Curtis Granderson won’t be using his left hand to hitch hike anytime soon.

Granderson jammed the thumb diving into second base in Game 3 of the NLCS at Wrigley Field, but later said the injury wasn’t affecting in his play.

In the World Series, Granderson had a 1.060 OPS with three homers and five RBIs.

Granderson hit three homers in the World Series with a bad thumb. With a good thumb he might he might have been Murphy-esque, circa NLCS.
