Wilson Ramos hit in head with bat, won't play Tuesday for Rays
Tampa Bay Rays catcher Wilson Ramos had to leave Monday's game against the Baltimore Orioles after he was struck in the head by a shattered bat.
Ramos required six staples to close the laceration on his head. It was a scary scene, but he passed concussion tests and the cut appears to be relatively minor. The 29-year-old backstop will sit out Tuesday, but he expects to return to the Rays' lineup by Wednesday.
After a late start to the year, Ramos is slashing .214/.250/.411 with 3 home runs and 11 RBI in 61 plate appearances (16 games). numberFire's models project him to record a .261 batting average with 2 taters and 7 RBI in 75 plate appearances over the remainder of the year.
