  • Five days after the injury, David Fry, Cleveland Guardians, returned to the Guardians clubhouse and spoke to reporters, walking around joking with teammates and doing well.
  • During the sixth inning, Fry was struck in the face while attempting to bunt by a 99 mph fastball from Tarik Skubal, Detroit Tigers, and collapsed in the batter's box.
  • After a night in hospital, medical staff discharged Fry with facial and nasal fractures; he has stitches, no tooth loss or concussion, and a Thursday follow-up appointment.
  • Although not on the playoff roster, Fry will be a presence around the team as the organization kept his jersey in the dugout and held a birthday party for Evelyn on Saturday.
  • Looking ahead, Fry said he doesn't expect to return this year and is scheduled for reexamination on Oct. 2, eager to be back next year in the batter's box.
