SEATTLE (AP) -Three-time All-Star Brandon Webb remains back home in Phoenix with pain in his pitching shoulder and won’t see an Arizona Diamondbacks team doctor until after Father’s Day.
Manager A.J. Hinch said Friday the 22-game winner last year was sent home from Arizona’s ongoing road trip instead of waiting until doctors were available next week to clear his mind because “this is a pretty emotional time to have pain in his shoulder.”
Hinch noted how long and hard Webb has worked in rehabilitation.
Webb’s shoulder bothered him Thursday while playing catch on flat ground in Kansas City, Mo. The team canceled a bullpen session Webb was to throw Friday in Seattle, leaving his comeback in limbo.
