Those worries about Rocco? Never mind

In his second at-bat of the season, the oft-injured Rhode Island native Rocco Baldelli of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays pulled up lame after popping up in the third inning of today's game against the New York Yankees. Baldelli is in the game as a designated hitter. There is no information yet about his condition. New York leads, 2-1, in the bottom of the third inning at Yankee Stadium.

UPDATE: Reports of Rocco's demise were vastly premature. He stayed in the game, singled home a run, stole a base, and scored himself as the Devil Rays knocked Carl Pavano out of the game and took a 5-3 lead after 4 1/2 innings at Yankee Stadium.
