It was Leon Wagner who collided with Brown


By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer NEW YORK (UPI) Cleveland shortstop Larry Brown was in the hospital today with a fractured skull, a fractured nose and a fractured cheek bone, all because he refused to quit hustling. The 26-year-old Brown was expected to be out of action at least six weeks and possibly longer as a result of his bloodsplattering collision with teammate Leon Wagner at Yankee Stadium Wednesday night. Physicians at Lenox Hill Hospital said Brown was in no imminent danger but took the precaution of placing him in a special Intensive care unit after he and Wagner were brought in by the same ambulance, Wednesday night’s accident

occurred when Brown and Wagner barreled into each other full tih while trying to snare Roger Marls’ bloop double near the left field foul line in the fourth inning of a game eventually won by the Indians 2-1. Brown and Wagner both lay motionless on the stadium turf after colliding and all the Indians, including Manager Birdie Tebbetts, immediately streamed from their dugout and ran over to them. Wagner, who suffered a broken nose, a mild concussion and lacerations on his face, was woozy but made it back to the clubhouse under his own power. Brown, whose face was covered with bl<«)d coming out of his right eye and mouth, had to be carried off on a stretcher.

Often times it's WHEN you call these guys up - preferably they are swinging well at the time.

Noting that to match our lineup featuring Ramirez Ramirez Rosario and Rosario; and some days Reyes and Rivera, the Tigers go with
Castro, Castro, Cameron, Candelario and Cabrera.

Also note that after Jose just hit a three run homer we're up 9-2 and Eli Morgan will get his first big league win if he just makes it through the 5th.

he'll still almost certainly get the win, but Morgan's final line, once again, isn't very good. 2 more runs in the 5h. His ERA after 4 starts is 8.80. 6 homers in something like 15 innings.

I suggest they create travel bubbles and Cleveland and Detroit compete together for the rest of the summer

Like Columbus and Toledo did!

Funny thing is the Detroit pitching staff just shut down Houston! And Detroit used up their good starters in THAT series.

:lol:
