Colorado Rockies shortstop Trevor Story (leg) remains out of the starting lineup on Friday night.

Richie James Needs Surgery

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver/kick returner Richie James (knee) needs surgery that is expected to keep him out at least six weeks, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.
