Nady getting hurt was scary. In those moments, no matter how frustrated you are with ownership, management, coaches, and various players, you just stop and pray that the people--not athletes, people--involved--are all right.
The Pirates are saying Nady's okay and doesn't have a concussion, which I would regard as good news if such news didn't come from the Pirates' medical staff. Still, he was lucid enough after the game to take a call from the AAA call-up who hit him, so I'm just glad that those prayers for health were answered.
Speaking of scary injuries--prayers go out to Juan Encarnacion, too. Talk about scary stuff--and reminders that, much as I love sports, human life has value beyond the performance of any particular person on the playing field.
