Atlanta Braves pitcher Matt Marksberry waking up from coma, breathing on his own

Tomahawk Take Editor’s Note: What a wild and scary course of events this story has been. If you’re just catching up (check out the full story here), Atlanta Braves left-handed pitcher Matt Marksberry had gone to the hospital for a colonoscopy after having extreme stomach issues. During the procedure, he suffered a seizure and a collapsed lung. He was placed into a medically-induced coma and put on life support. It’s amazing how life can change just in a second.
