Via ESPN: Brian Roberts knocked himself out of the Baltimore Orioles' lineup. Literally.
The veteran second baseman explained Monday that he missed the last six games of the season for concussion-like symptoms after hitting himself in the helmet with a bat.
Roberts, who missed much of the season with injuries, thinks it happened last Monday, after a ninth-inning strikeout against the Tampa Bay Rays.
"In frustration [after a strikeout], I whacked myself on the head with my bat in the ninth. I had my helmet on," Roberts told reporters. "It's something I've done a million times, but I still can't tell you for sure if that was it. But that's the only thing that I can point to because that night and the next morning, I just didn't feel good. So it's been going on since then."
**face-palms**
Meanwhile, ESPN is reporting Lowe in Game 1, Hanson in Game 2, and Huddy in Game 3. No formal announcement from the Giants yet, but Bochy said on the radio that it would likely be Timmy in Game 1, Cain in Game 2, and Sanchez in Game 3. Basically, Bri and I will be in a fight come Game 3.
eta Chavvy's on KNBR right now, says he'll be on board providing analysis on MLBN this week. And he's totally nervous about it. Heh.
