Houston Astros pitcher Jake Odorizzi was taken off the field in a stretcher last night (May 16th) when he injured his leg and collapsed while running to cover first base in the fifth inning against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. The team said Odorizzi had "left lower leg discomfort," and manager Dusty Baker said he would have an MRI done, stating, "He’s probably doing better than it looked like on the mound." Boston won the game 6-3.
