Household dishes are joining travel luggage as the scourge of MLB players.
The San Francisco Chronicle's Susan Slusser reported Oakland Athletics relief pitcher Shawn Kelley cut his left thumb as he was washing a "very very sharp knife" last Friday. Slusser added there was "lots of blood."
His injury may not be the oddest involving an MLB player and steel cutlery. Former outfielder Oddibe McDowell cut his hand on a butter knife in 1987 as he was buttering a roll at a team banquet.
