Brought up from AA ball (Southern League) by the Cubs
Bats for pitcher in 9th inning of game against Marlins!
Valerio De Los Santos throws first pitch, and . . .
. . . it strikes Adam in back of head and he goes down . . .
. . . ending his season, and perhaps ending his entire MLB career!
It is unfair when a young man is struck down before he can prove himself-- we hate to hear of it,
and all of us pull for him. In Adam Greenberg's case, the final verdict isn't in yet:
He returned to West Tenn in 2006, but hit poorly
Kansas City picked him up and he played for their Wichita farm team in 2007
