St. Louis flared up in the 1st personalized iron on on stickers

 The Padres got their ace back on Tuesday night, but only for one inning. The issue now is whether Mike Clevinger will take the ball again for the Padres this postseason. Pitching for the first time in 13 days, Clevinger exited the Padres’ 5-1 loss to the Dodgers in Game 1 of the National League Division Series alongside manager Jayce Tingler and head athletic trainer Mark Rogow after throwing two pitches in the second inning. The right elbow impingement that kept Clevinger out of San Diego’s NFL iron on letter number NL Wild Card Series against St. Louis flared up in the 1st personalized iron on on stickers inning, and he couldn’t shake the feeling between innings. Clevinger said the injury feels like “knocking on the back of my elbow, like my bones are hitting in the back of my elbow.” The right-hander became emotional during his postgame Zoom call with reporters and wouldn’t declare himself out for the rest of this series. Tingler said the Padres are “hopeful” that Clevinger will be able to come back, but cautioned that the pitcher’s status is “still kind of day to day with everything.” Clevinger’s right elbow impingement limited him to just one inning between Sept. 13 and Tuesday night, but the Padres deemed him healthy more than enough to take the ball in their series opener against the Dodgers at Globe Lifestyle Field in Arlington. He proved helpful a scoreless initial inning, with his fastball maxing out at 96.9 mph, but his stuff was clearly not the same after sports logo decals stickers that. Clevinger said he started to feel some distress in his elbow after throwing a changeup to Corey Seager, the next batter in the first inning, and striking his elbow along with his knee.
