Brewers' Travis Shaw gets struck in neck by catcher's throw while stealing a base

Related Topics: Travis Shaw

During Saturday's Brewers-Rays game (MIL-TB GameTracker), Milwaukee third baseman Travis Shaw was struck on the neck by a throw from Rays catcher Jesus Sucre.

That's obviously good news, all things considered. Shaw, with his 50 extra-base hits, has been a vital part of the Brewers' success this season, and losing him for an extended period of time might be a season-killer. Mostly, though, it's good news because the injury looked like a scary one when it happened ...

Shaw was down for several minutes after it happened and was attended to by trainers from both teams.
