Manabu Yamauchi Injured, Out for Year
Friday, July 7th, 2028
Manabu Yamauchi of the Jail Birds just might have to call it quits for the season. The 21-year-old Newark starting pitcher received a possible season-ending injury against the West Coast Defenders recently at North Shore Park. Yamauchi suffered a bone spur in his elbow while throwing a pitch. The Jail Birds medical staff said he could be out quite some time, as much as 4 months.
Presently Yamauchi has a 3-10 mark in 18 starts with a 6.78 ERA. He has given up 87 hits in 85 innings, struck out 86 and issued 61 walks. Opposing clubs have compiled a .266 batting average against him.
