Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Debuts Wednesday
Carroll served as the Diamondbacks' designated hitter and went 0-for-3 with a strikeout in Wednesday's 13-3 Cactus League loss to the Athletics.
Using an ax-handle bat, Carroll grounded out, flied out and struck out in his Cactus League debut, which had been delayed while he recovered from surgery to repair a broken right hamate bone. He told Steve Gilbert of MLB.com that using the bat was an adjustment but added it was "manageable." The new handle is less painful than the bat Carroll would typically use, and the outfielder will have to work through that discomfort. He's expected to serve as the DH for a few more spring games before returning to the outfield in advance of Opening Day.
