Per Matt Gelb of philly.com, Bastardo was unpleased with his performance Wednesday night against the Twins and "took his anger out on a squat machine, which returned the favor."
I have no idea how the logistics work here, in as far as how a squat machine could injure Bastardo's eye. I'm assuming he punched or kicked it, so something must have been thrust back at him. Anyway, maybe a punching bag should be installed in every MLB clubhouse. Just a thought.
Bastardo, 26, has a 2.53 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 31 strikeouts in 21 1/3 innings this season. Aside from closer Jonathan Papelbon, Bastardo is the most valuable piece of the Phillies' bullpen.
