MILWAUKEE -- Sal Frelick returned to the Milwaukee Brewers' lineup for the start of the playoffs without needing to worry about hitting any metal if he crashed into a wall again.
Frelick bruised his hip Friday when his left side made contact with the metal chain link inside a window in American Family Field's right field sidewall that had no protective padding. As the Brewers started their NL Wild Card Series with the New York Mets on Tuesday, padding had been added to cover that window.
This isn't the first time stadiums have altered their fences or walls after a player got hurt crashing into them.
