Injuries continue as David Wright gets hit in head, has concussion!

All Star pitchers Matt Cain (SF) and Johan Santana (NY) were locked in a pitcher's duel at Citi Field until the fourth inning, when things turned ugly. Matt Cain nailed Met's 3B David Wright in the head with a 94 mph fastball. Cain, obviously unsettled by the event, crouched between home and the mound while trainers worked on Wright.

David Wright was taken to the Hospital for Special Surgery by ambulance about an hour after being hit in the head. Mets spokesman Jay Horwitz said a CT scan was negative and that Wright had a concussion. He was
expected to remain in the hospital overnight for observation.

Despite the fact that there was little, if any, reason for Matt Cain to hit David Wright in the head, Santana hit the Giants Bengie Molina in retaliation. Matt Cain left to resounding boos in the 8th inning leading 4-2 and two on, but Jeremy Affeldt gave up an RBI single to Fernando Tatis and Giants closer Brian Wilson gave up Gary Sheffield's tying sacrifice fly.
