Seattle Mariners ace Felix Hernandez took a line drive off of his right arm and had to leave his spring training start against the Cubs early. It could have been a precautionary measure to take him out, but the fact that Hernandez dropped to his knees suggests he could have suffered an injury.
Get ready for soft writers to call for pitchers to pitch behind an L screen or in a bubble or something. I have a better idea, they can throw better pitches that don’t get smoked back at them. Or maybe start using that thing on your hand called a glove.
