Nationals fans collectively held their breath after Stephen Strasburg was hit on the arm by a Prince Fielder line drive. A Ryan Theriot line drive, you?re probably going to be okay, but a Prince Fielder liner? I?d preemptively draft a will before ever throwing him a pitch.
Strasburg, though, is just fine. Via Mark Zuckerman:
In the end, there was nothing for everyone to be worried about. The fourth-inning comebacker caught Strasburg on the fleshy pad of his left thumb, not on a less-protected part of his hand, wrist or forearm. And after a couple minutes spent getting the feeling back in the hand and then throwing a couple of warm-up tosses, Strasburg was back to his old self, striking out a pair of Tigers to end the inning and continue his Grapefruit League start unabated.
?It?s fine,? the right-hander insisted afterward. ?It just kind of numbed up a little bit out there. It?s a little tender, but nothing crazy.?
In his first full season last year, Strasburg posted a 3.16 ERA, leading all starters in strikeout rate at the age of 23.
