Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Bobby Miller experienced a frightening moment during a spring training game against the Chicago Cubs when he was struck in the head by a line drive. The incident occurred in the third inning when a 105.5 mph liner hit Miller on the right temple area where his hat meets his head. Despite the impact, Miller managed to get up on his knees with the help of medical staff and was able to walk off the field on his own.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts commented on the severity of the hit, noting that the ball had 'squared him up pretty good.' Miller will undergo concussion protocol as a precautionary measure, and the team will monitor his condition closely. Roberts expressed concern for Miller's well-being and emphasized the importance of ensuring that he is feeling okay before determining his future participation.
The 25-year-old right-hander, who was vying for a spot in the starting rotation, faces uncertainty regarding his return to play following the injury. Last season, Miller posted a 2-4 record with an 8.52 ERA over 13 starts, making his potential absence a setback for the team as they prepare for the upcoming season.



Despite the scare, Miller's ability to walk off the field unaided offers a glimmer of hope amidst the concern surrounding his condition. The Dodgers organization and fans alike will be eagerly awaiting updates on his progress and hoping for a swift and full recovery for the promising young pitcher.
