Tigers' Meadows in hospital after colliding with teammate
Detroit Tigers center fielder Parker Meadows was hospitalized for observation on Thursday after a scary collision with left fielder Riley Greene in a 3-1 Major League Baseball loss to the Minnesota Twins.
Meadows and Greene were both tracking an eighth-inning line drive from Twins batter Josh Bell when they smacked into each other at full speed.
Greene remained on his feet with the ball in his hand as Meadows crumpled to the ground with blood trickling out of his mouth after the head-to-head clash.
"It was a terrible feeling," said Greene, who went over to offer support before Tigers medical staff arrived to tend to Meadows and, eventually, help him onto a cart.
The Tigers said he would stay in hospital overnight.
"That was an ugly, scary one," Tigers manager A.J Hinch said. "When we got out there, it looked like he had bit his lip or inside his mouth, so there was some blood, and he was pretty out of it.
"Those are scary collisions. You don't know what you're going to get when you get there," Hinch added. "Obviously we're going to get him checked out for everything, but this one worries me."
