Matsui Gone with Broken Wrist

[rockin500]

in the first inning, while diving to make a catch he bent his wrist backwards and broke it. He needs surgery and will be out for a significant period of time. not good, considering sheffield is already down.

Yeah,

I saw the broken wrist play too. It looked like a pretty basic slide until the very last second when it turned nasty. Tough role for the Yanks. Looks like the rookie Cabrera and Bubba will be starting for a while (along with Bernie).

PEACE
Brett

I feel sick. Just LOOKING at his hand after it happened was horrible :(.

horrible, HORRIBLE break.

All we can say is :(...

[rockin500]

now you know how I feel MW. it looked pretty much the same as Derrek Lee's injury. and frankly, may be even worse even.

[I Are Baboon]

Ugh...that was horrible to watch. God damn that looked painful. His hand was just sort of dangling off his wrist. :ugh: Of course, the good folks at NESN showed it about a dozen times in super slow motion. :no:

[rockin500]

so did ESPN. i think they like to shock people for fun. yuck!

[PissedPrincess]

Poor Matsui.:( God speed dude.

F*cking sucks. Having Sheffield out was hurting us enough. And now Matsui will be out too. :(

[Dark_Angel]

Man, that looked so painful. :(

It sucks that he's going to be out for so long. I hope Sheff is able to come off the DL soon.

I can't believe he actually made the play on that ball too! he still went after it and threw it back. that musta been painful!

hope he gets better soon.
