New York Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira had treatment for a bruised right elbow suffered on Tuesday and expects to be ready to play on Thursday.
The Yankees trainer reportedly kissed the boo-boo and told Teixeira to go out and play, but he couldn’t get Teixeira to stop crying and demanding a band-aid for the bruise.
Finally the situation was resolved when the trainer produced a nice Hello Kitty bandage and applied it gently to the bruise.
New York Yankees odds tumbled on the news, but they have since recovered with the positive prognosis.
Note: I have tremendous respect for Teixeira. The above is more about sports reporting than Teixeira.
