Year Over for Black Mambas van den Hombergh Thursday, July 30th , 2054 Austin reliever Gijsbert van den Hombergh could miss the remainder of the season because of a partially torn ulnar collateral ligament. He exited yesterday's Nashville game after injuring himself while throwing a pitch. The original diagnosis said van den Hombergh would be out 10 months. Later on his doctors said he could be out even longer. "He's done," his manager commented at the BNN press conference. "It's a season-ending injury, but it could have been worse. It's not the worst-case scenario, so we're happy about that." This year van den Hombergh has 7 relief appearances with 1 save, 0-0 season record and a 0.00 ERA. He has hurled 11.1 innings, given up 4 hits, struck out 8 and walked 1. Opposing clubs have batted .105 against the Austin reliever. |
