Paul Lo Duca had to leave tonight's game in the seventh inning after fouling off an 0-1 pitch from Roy Oswalt and then screaming out in agony. No official word yet from the Nationals, but it appeared as though Lo Duca re-injured the right hand that put him on the DL last month.
The scene turned really strange when Lo Duca, as he was walking back to the dugout, started yelling and pointing at a couple of fans in the first row who were razzing him. Lo Duca nearly had to be restrained by assistant trainer Mike McGowan before going down the dugout steps and retreating to the clubhouse.
Stadium security then escorted three men from the front row out of the ballpark.
Meanwhile, it's still 3-3 in the eighth inning of another wild game.
