Shoulder Injury Benches Ted For Awhile
Boston slugger Ted Williams is sidelined indefinitely with a left shoulder injury after a swing and a collision trying to make a leaping catch during a 9-2 loss to Chicago. Williams, approaching 42, may miss one game or many as trainer Jack Fadden assesses the setback. Manager Mike Higgins noted the injury is not linked to the pinch nerve that troubled him in 1959 and early this season.
