Andrus takes licking and keeps on ticking

ARLINGTON -- Rangers shortstop Elvis Andrus took a beating on Sunday afternoon, but was still ready to go on Monday against the White Sox.

Andrus was already dealing with a sore back and groin muscle on Sunday against the Tigers. Then he took a pitch from Tigers pitcher Mark Lowe off his left elbow in the eighth inning and fouled a pitch off the back of his right knee in the ninth.

Andrus said it was physically one of the toughest games he has ever been through.

"My elbow was sore, but it's fine now," Andrus said.
