MESA, Ariz. -- Evan Marshall just can't stop smiling this spring.
That's what happens when you go from fighting for your life to being back on a big league pitcher's mound in a seven-month span.
The D-backs right-hander experienced a nearly fatal incident Aug. 3 last year, when he was struck in the head by a line drive while pitching for Triple-A Reno in El Paso.
Marshall tossed his sixth scoreless inning of the spring Wednesday night, and on Thursday morning, he was asked what he thought the reason was for his success.
