Riversharks Kouji Tsuchiya Down and Out for Year Sunday, July 23rd , 2079 Wichita starting pitcher Kouji Tsuchiya could miss the remainder of the season because of a torn flexor tendon in his elbow. He exited yesterday's Fremont game after injuring himself while throwing a pitch. The original diagnosis said Tsuchiya would be out 12-13 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." On his stats sheet for the year Tsuchiya shows a 0-2 record, 10 starts, 36.2 innings, 49 strikeouts and a 5.15 ERA. |
