Luke Scott Injures Himself During Home Run Trot

When a bat breaks while getting a hit, they say "it died a hero." Luke Scott's pulled hamstring, suffered in the act of helping a last place team eke out a win, is just a martyr for a lost cause.

Scott pulled the hammy rounding first, meaning he had a painful 270 feet to go. But if he hadn't have toughed it out, his homer wouldn't have counted, and the Orioles wouldn't have pulled within 23 games of first place.

But I know what you're thinking. Where does this rank on Wezen-Ball's invaluable Tater Trot Tracker? Well, his injury-hampered time of 35.76 seconds is a new season high, a full five seconds more than David Ortiz's.
