John Axford Leaves Monday's Game With An Elbow Injury
3 years agoMilwaukee Brewers relief pitcher John Axford (elbow) was removed in the ninth inning of Monday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates with an elbow injury. Axford, who was acquired from the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday, was making his first MLB appearance since 2018 in the game. He struggled immensely in the outing, allowing two hits, one walk and two earned runs while only recording one out. Axford likely won't be seeing many high-leverage situations for the team unless he starts to settle in. He spent his first five MLB seasons in Milwaukee and had a good amount of success, including a 46 save season back in 2011.
