CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Chicago White Sox left-hander Carlos Rodon was removed from a minor league rehab start Thursday after being hit in the forehead by a line drive.
Rodon was pitching for Triple-A Charlotte as he works back from offseason shoulder surgery. He fell to the ground but bounced up quickly after being struck by D'Arby Myers' comebacker in the third inning.
Rodon removed his hat and checked his forehead for blood -- he didn't appear to be bleeding -- as a team trainer ran to the mound. He seemed to want to remain in the game but was led off by the trainer.
