Seattle Mariners outfielder Ichiro Suzuki took a pitch off the helmet in a minor league appearance on Friday in Peoria, Arizona, and had to leave the game.
He was helped to his feet by trainers but walked off the field on his own. He is "doing well," Mariners general manager Jerry Dipoto told MLB.com.
The 44-year-old player will be re-examined Saturday to see if is able to play in the Mariners' scheduled game against the Chicago Cubs.
Ichiro was playing in the minors to get in some extra at-bats. He has been dealing with a sore calf all month and is 0-7 this spring with four strikeouts.
