CHICAGO (AP) A man http://www.philliesfanproshop.com/authentic-dave-hollins-jersey , who was wearing a plastic bucket on his head when a large metal pin fell from Wrigley Field’s centerfield scoreboard during a Chicago Cubs game, said he feels lucky to be alive.Kyle McAleer was sitting with his family and friends under the manual scoreboard when he was hit by a 6- to 8-inch pin during last week’s game against the Arizona Diamondbacks.The 20-year-old Iowa man said he began wearing the bucket with his family as a ”rally cap” after he saw former Cubs player Starlin Castro wear one a few years ago.McAleer said he put the bucket on his head about a half-inning before his injury. He said he believes he might have been killed without it.”It might have fractured my skull. It definitely could have been fatal. I am extremely lucky,” McAleer said.Cubs spokesman Julian Green said the incident occurred when a loose pin that rolled out of the scoreboard when a tile was being changed. The scoreboard is now secure, Green said.The Cubs have sent McAleer some gifts, including a jersey. McAleer praised the team for their quick response John Kruk Jersey , but said no decision has been about legal action.”If it was any other injury than a head injury, chances are this already would have been settled,” McAleer said. ”But the fact it was a head injury, and there’s still a definite possibility I could suffer concussion symptoms within a couple of weeks or months after the incident.” The Los Angeles Dodgers aren't the least bit worried about a disappointing postseason from Clayton Kershaw.According to Joel Sherman of the New York Post, the Dodgers are giving their ace pitcher a whopping three-year contract extension worth $93 million - ending any speculation that he would test the free agent waters.So Kershaw will not hit free agency http://www.philliesfanproshop.com/authentic-greg-luzinski-jersey , instead new deal is for 3 yrs at $93M plus bonus provisions— Joel Sherman (@Joelsherman1) November 2, 2018Kershaw turned 30 years of age in March and was hampered by back injuries in 2018, but the Dodgers appear confident in his ability to sustain the Cy Young level of play for the net three years.The Dodgers were embarrassed by the Boston Red Sox in five games and fell in the World Series for a second straight year. Kershaw was off in both of his stars聽- struggling big-time against the Red Sox in games one and five.advertisingIn the postseason, Kershaw pitched 30 innings and struck out 26 batters, but he allowed four home runs and posted an ERA of 4.20. Kershaw finished with a record of 2-3 in the playoffs Mike Schmidt Jersey , further complicating his legacy after another year of underachieving when his team needed it most. Credit: Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY SportsBut the Dodgers are simply looking at the regular season version of Kershaw. He went 9-5 with 155 strikeouts in 161.1 innings pitched and an ERA of 2.73. They're banking on more long-term success from the three-time NL Cy Young winner.In re-signing Kershaw, the Dodgers now have their top priority season out of the way. The goal now has to simply be to find another quality reliever and more bench players, because the Dodgers didn't have any production there during the World Series.advertisingThe Dodgers have now won six consecutive NL East division titles, but they only have two NL pennants and no championship rings to show for it. With Kershaw landing a major extension, he has to get over the playoff hump and find a way to end this team's 31-year World Series drought in 2019. The Dodgers are banking on him doing it.
