3/14/16: Johnny Cueto gets hit by a comebacker, but he remains in the ballgame after getting looked at by trainersMESA, Ariz. -- Giants starter Johnny Cueto experienced a frightening moment in Monday night's Cactus League game against the Oakland A's, whose leadoff batter, Billy Burns, lined the first pitch off the right-hander's head.
Cueto stayed in the game and pitched three innings, surrendering three runs -- all on a Josh Reddick homer -- and five hits. Upon leaving the game, Cueto also left Hohokam Stadium to undergo concussion tests at a nearby hospital.
