Detroit’s Amos Rusie Injured, Out 4 Weeks with Elbow Strain
Detroit Lakers' promising young pitcher Amos Rusie faced an unfortunate setback today as he was diagnosed with an elbow strain during his team's victory over the Pittsburgh Predators. Rusie, who is in his first year as a starter, will be sidelined for approximately 4 weeks.
Despite the injury, Rusie has had a commendable start to the season, posting a 2-2 record with a 3.97 ERA. His absence will be a blow to the Lakers, who will need to rely on their other pitchers while Rusie recovers.
