Giants outfielder Harrison Bader injured in scooter crash
San Francisco Giants outfielder Harrison Bader underwent an MRI on Tuesday after he was injured in a scooter crash this past weekend, the club announced. Bader, who has not played since May 29 due to plantar fasciitis, further injured his foot in the crash that occurred “Saturday night/early Sunday morning,” according to the Giants. Bader was previously scheduled to see a foot and ankle specialist on Monday in Indianapolis regarding his plantar fasciitis, but that appointment was “complicated” after the scooter injury “changed the nature of his evaluation,” the Giants said. He returned to San Francisco on Monday and was examined by Giants team doctors before he was set to undergo an MRI on Tuesday.
