“This is what a serious concussion looks and sounds (I still can’t remember anything) Apparently I fell out of a deer stand 25 meters up yesterday morning,” he wrote at X.

“I feel good and appreciate everyone checking on me. Very lucky … Concussion and 2 broken vertebrae…. I will come back in #birdland, which soon calls Orioles play. Thank you all for all (your) thoughts and (beans) and thanks to the doctors. See soon.”

He had a 3.91 era with 894 strikes in 211 appearances. He spent the last two seasons with Milwaukee Brewers. The last season of his career was in 1997.
