CHICAGO (AP)—The Minnesota Twins say first baseman Justin Morneau(notes) has mild
concussion symptoms and will miss at least the next several games.
Morneau jammed his left shoulder Sunday diving for a ball against the
Detroit Tigers. The team said Tuesday he started experiencing headaches Monday
and he was given a concussion test.
The team said he displayed “mild” symptoms during one part of the test, so
it was decided to play it safe with a player who missed the second half of last
season with a concussion.
The 30-year-old Morneau said he was feeling better Tuesday, but the headache
hadn’t completely subsided. He is expected to be tested again on Wednesday.
