Rangers pitcher Martin Perez suffered a freak injury on his ranch in Venezuela in December when a bull came charging at him. While attempting to get out of the way of the bull, Perez fell awkwardly and broke his non-pitching elbow, an injury that required surgery.

Perez is happy to report now, though, that the bull has met the swift hand of justice.

“I killed him and I ate him,” Perez told reporters after his start on Sunday.

“It was good meat,” Perez added. “No more bull.”

That’s one piece of good news.
