Good morning baseball fans!
Despite the alarming sounding headline, it seems like Brandon Crawford is probably looking at the best-case scenario after a frightening collision with catcher Travis d’Arnaud during last night’s game between the San Francisco Giants and the Atlanta Braves. The Giants announced after the game that it was a contusion (aka a fancy word for a bruise).
Crawford had singled earlier in the inning and advanced to third on a double from last night’s main character Austin Wynns. Luis González hit a sacrifice fly to center fielder Michael Harris, II who threw home in an attempt to get Crawford that was initially successful, but overturned after a challenge.
