Dustin May receives positive injury update after shoulder scare

Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Dustin May has received an encouraging medical update following an injury during a game against the New York Mets. After being struck in the right shoulder by a 106 mph line drive, May was diagnosed with a contusion around his right shoulder blade rather than a fracture. He has already begun throwing and expressed hope to start this coming Sunday.

The Brewers evened their series against the Mets 1-1, with the pitching staff and offense supporting the team after May exited the game after just one pitch. For the upcoming rubber match, the Brewers are expected to start Jacob Misiorowski, who holds a 1.68 ERA this season, while the Mets are scheduled to start Sean Manaea.
