Ray Lankford out of Lineup 4-5 Months
Sunday, May 10th, 1998
Philadelphia fans will be disappointed to learn that Ray Lankford suffered a torn back muscle while running the bases in today's game. After the doctor informed the Philadelphia Phillies manager that Lankford was expected to miss 4-5 months, the manager told the press that the rest of the team would have to step up their play until the left fielder could return. "You can't make excuses in baseball, because there's always a game tomorrow," said the team's skipper.
So far this season Lankford has hit .278 with 8 home runs, 16 RBIs and scored 27 times.
