Weird: Cards Reliever Injured Playing Golf
/Derrick Goold reports on Cardinals reliever Marc Rzepczynski injuring himself during a spring training golf outing Friday
"It's a freak, freak, freak thing," Rzepczynski said.
On his second shot on the first hole of a round of golf, Rzepczynski attempted to punch shot around a tree. He made the shot and collapsed, his eye struck and bruised by something. The golf ball traveled far enough that he is unsure how it could ricochet off the tree and his eye and still carry into the fairway. He is unsure if something else was hit by the club and damaged his eye.
