Having flown into LA on Sunday May 15th with his team set to play a four-game series against the Dodgers, Nick Ahmed felt fine when he went to bed. He woke up at 3 A.M. with fever, shivers, and body aches.
“It hit me quick and hard. I’ve been trying to recover since. I’m still not back to normal yet unfortunately.”
The fevers lasted for the first three or four days. He subsequently experienced migraines, fatigue, lung congestion and loss of appetite losing 6 or 7 pounds. As he started to feel better he went to Salt River Fields to engage in light baseball activities.
