News about Brendan Donovan

Phillies pitcher Zack Wheeler was pitching to Brendan Donovan when he bounced a curveball, catching Realmuto on the right side of his neck, above the collarbone, and knocking off his mask. The three-time All-Star had to exit the game shortly after sustaining the scary injury. 'We'll check him tomorrow. It doesn't look like there's any broken bones,' Phillies manager Rob Thompson said in his postgame comments.

After being struck in the side of the head by a line drive Friday night, Atlanta Braves reliever Jackson Stephens sustained concussion. In the ninth inning against the St. Louis Cardinals, Stephens walked off the field. Trainers on the field led the right-hander before being barred from the game and admitted to the hospital. He has had concussion and been put on the seven-day injured list.
