Dodger Shoots Himself in Leg
The World Series isn't over yet, but that hasn't stopped the exciting Dodgers offseason from getting a little head start. Dodgers pitcher Vicente Padilla apparently shot himself in the right leg in his home country of Nicaragua today.
In a report by MLB.com's Ken Gurnick, Padilla's agent Adam Katz notified the Dodgers of the injury following Padilla's treatment in a Managua hospital. The wound is being described as minor.
