It seemed like the Baltimore Orioles star prospect was OK after getting hit in the head with a baseball, but he is still dealing with concussion symptoms which will force him to miss time.
when their star prospect Heston Kjerstad went down in a heap after getting hit in the helmet with a fastball.At the time, Kjerstad appeared to be fine, but he was placed on the seven-day concussion list a day later.In his seven games following that incident, Kjerstad went 2-for-18. He was 14-for-36 with five extra-base hits, three homers, and 12 RBI in his 14 games before he was hit in the helmet.
Hopefully this extended time away from the game allows him to fully recover since he'll be working with the medical staff with the sole focus on making sure those symptoms are no longer present.Brad Wakai graduated from Penn State University with a degree in Journalism.
