Rangers' Nippert takes line drive off head
Baseball Betting Lines
07/19/2010 -
Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Texas Rangers reliever Dustin Nippert was
drilled on the side of the head by a line drive off the bat of Austin Jackson
during Monday's game versus the Tigers at Comerica Park.
The right-hander tried in vain to shield the right side of his head with his
hand, but the ball found a path and caught him flush near the top of the
scalp. He remained down on the ground for a short time while team trainers
assessed his condition, but ultimately Nippert walked off the mound under his
own power.
Nippert had started the sixth inning in relief of starter Scott Feldman in a
5-5 game and was facing only his second batter. Right-handed submariner Darren
O'Day took over pitching duties with Jackson on second.
