Luis Salazar’s recovery took another step today, as he returned to the diamond. David O’Brien (via AJC.com):
Two Weeks Later, Luis Salazar Back In Ballpark
↵
↵For those who saw Luis Salazar unconscious on the dugout floor two weeks ago, seeing him back at spring training Wednesday, talking about returning to managing in a few weeks, was remarkable.
↵The Braves minor league manager returned to Champion Stadium eight days after surgery to remove his left eye, irreparably damaged when he was struck by a foul ball off the bat of Brian McCann during a March 9 game.
↵
↵Takeaways from this piece: Salazar’s tough, and grateful to be alive; Brian McCann’s a good guy; and the entire Braves organization couldn’t have been better during this whole thing. Oh, and Salazar should be back in the dugout, managing the Lynchburg Hillcats, sometime next month.
