Hernandez hurting but Mariners fortunate no major injury

PEORIA, Ariz. (AP) — During a spring training that's been filled with small nagging injuries, the Seattle Mariners believe they caught a fortunate break after Felix Hernandez took a line drive off his right arm.

Hernandez said Tuesday he is still very sore a day after a liner off the bat of the Chicago Cubs' Victor Caratini hit Hernandez in the right forearm.

The injury happened in Hernandez's first spring training start and left the right-hander feeling pain he's rarely felt in his career.

"That hurt real bad. I can't explain how bad it was. I didn't feel anything like that before," Hernandez said.

"I finished the pitch and I saw the ball coming and I said 'Oh my God.' And then my brother told me yesterday, 'Why didn't you pick the ball up and throw it to first?'"
