Indiana's Eddington Sidelined for Season

INDIANAPOLIS, IN. May 17, 1917 - The doctors have spoken and Sydney Eddington of the Indiana Blues didn't like what he heard. The 32-year-old starting pitcher is almost certainly gone for the rest of the year and depending on his progress could miss some of next season as well. Eddington sustained his season-ending injury during the Newark Peppers game yesterday at Hoosier Grounds. He had to leave the game because he hurt himself while throwing a pitch. Today the Indiana medical staff reported Eddington had a forearm strain and would be absent from the lineup for at least 7 months.

This year Eddington has gone 4-6 with an ERA of 2.34 and has 34 strikeouts in 92.1 innings.
