Beckett Shows Good Signs after Mild Concussion

After sustaining a mild concussion a few days ago Beckett showed signs of recovery Friday. This happened when he got hit with a hard line drive in the temple. He had trouble walking off the field, but slowly got better. He missed his start on Thursday vs the Phillies. But instead, pitched a three inning simulated game on Friday. During this simulated game, he pitched 40 good pitches and showed no signs of injury. When asked about how he fells, he said,"I'm actually good," said Beckett. "I'm really sore on the left side of my head, my jaw, and stuff like that. I think I'm pretty much back to normal." That is a very reassuring sign for all of New England.
