Mallex Smith, you were too good for this world...
...ok, its not that serious. Mallex was having himself a fine debut. He had reached on an infield single and scored from first on a double. Then, he reached base again on a fielder's choice, but that's is where the fun ended. While trying to steal second, Mallex's helmet bounced off the ground and cut him which caused him to exit the game.
#Braves announced Mallex Smith left the game with a laceration over his left eye. He is day-to-day.

The worst part: Mallex was caught stealing on the attempt. While he was bleeding a good bit from the wound, fans shouldn't be too worried. The Braves inexplicably planned to sit Mallex against a lefty tomorrow and usually cuts don't result in long absences. For now, though...we are Mallex-less.
