Line drive to the foot ends Tigers RHP Matt Mannings season

YouTube Video Thumbnail
Detroit Tigers starting right-hander Matt Manning was placed on the injured list on Thursday for the second time this season after taking a line drive to the right foot -- the second fracture ending his season. Manning was pitching in the first inning Wednesday night against the host New York Yankees when slugger Giancarlo Stanton hit a 119.5-mph comebacker to the mound that caromed off Manning's right foot. Manning was still able to finish the play by making an underhand toss to first baseman Spencer Torkelson for the third out, but his night and season were over. He did not figure into the decision of the Yankees' 4-3 victory. Manning went on the 15-day IL on Thursday. In a corresponding move, the Tigers recalled right-hander Trey Wingenter from Triple-A Toledo. Wingenter, 29, is 1-0 with a 7.00 ERA in nine innings over 10 appearances for the Tigers this season. He is 0-1 with a 7.06 ERA in 21 2/3 innings over 24 games (two starts) at the Triple-A and Single-A levels this season. The 25-year-old Manning also sustained a fractured toe on his right foot after the Toronto Blue Jays' Alejandro Kirk connected for a comebacker on April 11, causing Manning to miss more than two months. "Yeah, kind of right when it happened, I was just annoyed that it was the same foot. Same spot, basically," Manning said. "And I was like, 'Ah, I don't know if it's broken; I hope it's not.' Made the play, though, that's cool." Manning is 5-4 with a 3.58 ERA, 21 walks and 50 strikeouts in 78 innings over 15 starts this season -- 13 after returning from his first fracture on June 27. "You can count probably on one hand how many pitchers have gotten hit in the foot with line drives this season; he's had it twice. That's incredibly unlucky," Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said. "119 (mph) off any part of your body is going to probably put you on the injured list. ... There's not much you can do once you go through your delivery and the dude smokes a ball off of you. All you can do is hope that the X-ray is going to come back negative. This one didn't."

Osho Quotes on Meditation

Osho Quotes on Meditation If tea-drinking can become a meditation, then anything can become a meditation — cooking or washing your clothes, any activity can be transformed into meditation. And the real sannyasin, the real seeker, will transform all his acts into meditation. Only then, when meditation spreads over all your life, not only when you are awake in the day — slowly slowly it starts penetrating and permeating your being in sleep too — when it becomes just part of you, like breathing, like your heartbeat, then, only, have you attained to the discipline, to the essential discipline of Zen. Meditation means: drop all thoughts, drop all ideologies, drop all knowledge. Drop the mind itself. The mind is constantly talking. If the inner talk can drop even for a single moment you will be able to have a glimpse of no-mind. That’s what meditation is all about. The state of no-mind is the right state. It is your state. Millions of people miss meditation because meditation has taken on...

OSHO on Ramakrishna

Sri Ramakrishna Enlightenment Osho : There is an episode in Ramakrishna’s life.... For his whole life he had been worshipping Mother Kali, But at the very end he began to feel,”It is duality; the experience of oneness has still not happened. It is lovely, delightful, but two still remains two.” Someone loves a woman, someone loves money, someone politics; he loved Ma Kali – but love still was divided in two. Still the ultimate nonduality hadn’t happened and he was in anguish. He began looking out for a nondualist, a Vedantist – for Some person to come who could show him the path. A Paramahansa named Totapuri was passing. Ramakrishna invited him to stop with him and asked, ”Help me to have darshan of the one.” Totapuri said, ”What’s difficult in that? You believe there are two, so there are two. Drop the belief!” Ramakrishna replied, ”But dropping this belief is very difficult – I have lived with it my whole life. When I close my eyes the image of Kali is standing there. I drown ...
