Josh Beckett pitched today and seemed fine:
Beckett missed two days last week after sustaining a concussion Monday when he was hit in the head by a ball off the bat of Red Sox staff member Ino Guerrero. He pitched a simulated game on Friday, then went 3 2/3 innings Tuesday against the Houston Astros, allowing one run on a wind-blown double while striking out four.
That’s good news for Beckett and the Red Sox. He might turn out to be the first player to wear the pitching helmet.
Astros road skrub team (AAA quality), so not much of a test. At least he seems over the concussion.
