PARIS - The optimism of another Opening Day was replaced with dread for Ronin fans as All-Star left fielder Ruben Brown left the game today. The diagnosis: bone spurs in the feet.
Brown raked this spring, leading the league in homers. Osaka faithful felt that the team had a good chance at competing for the post season if (woops) Brown, Rockwell and Peppers stayed healthy all year. Now, just one series into the season, the Ronin are a man down.
Team doctors say Brown will need 6-8 weeks to recover. When asked why these bone spurs were not diagnosed this spring, team doctors suddenly lost all ability to speak English.
