X-Rays Show Beck’s Wrist Not Broken

Share via

Tests on Cal State Fullerton outfielder Chris Beck’s injured left wrist Monday showed no fracture, according to Titan trainer Chris Mumaw.

Beck had X-rays after returning from the Titans’ three-game series at Stanford. The sprained wrist caused Beck to leave the series’ second game Saturday after one at-bat. He did not play Sunday.

Beck was the Titans’ leading hitter last season with a .408 average.

The Titans fell from second to fifth in this week’s Baseball America poll after being swept by the top-ranked Cardinal. Alabama moved up to second, followed by UCLA and Florida State. USC is ranked sixth.

* Los Alamitos High will induct former pitching standout Greg Harris--the only player to pitch right- and left-handed in a major league game--into its baseball hall of fame at 10 a.m. Feb. 19 on the school’s baseball field.

During his 15-year big-league career, Harris pitched with the Expos, Padres, Rangers, Phillies and Red Sox. The glove from the game in which he pitched right- and left-handed rests in the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y.

Harris, a 1974 graduate of Los Alamitos, led the Griffins to a league championship. He also helped Long Beach City College win a state junior college title in 1976.
