Miguel Cabrera ...

... was hit in the face by a pitch in the top of the 6th on Sunday's (June 5) game. John Valentin, one of my favorite Red Sox, was hit in the head by a pitch in 1995, and was never the same player again. I hope Cabrera recovers, but his at bats since have left him hitless.

Sunday, top 9: strikeout
Tuesday: Fly out, Fly out, Strike out, Strike out
Wednesday: Walk, Fly out, Pop out, Line out

Eight plate appearances, one walk, no hits, three strikeouts.

It's something I'm keeping an eye on.
