Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jakob Junis was hit in the neck by a batted ball during batting practice in Pittsburgh. He was conscious, alert, and responsive, and subsequently taken to the hospital for further evaluation. Junis was transported in an ambulance after the incident.
Interesting nugget from Pat Murphy’s pregame media session: Considering Jacob Junis’ early-season shoulder issue, the Brewers may bring Junis back from the IL as a reliever instead of building him all the way up to start.
