Hit and Run: Cervelli is OK, Burnett's Changeup, and Brackman

March 6, 2010 | Posted by Rob Abruzzese

Here are a couple of things to note from this afternoon’s 9-1 loss to the Blue Jays

Francisco Cervelli left today’s game with a concussion and went to the hospital. CT Scans came back negative and he’ll only miss a few days. “I feel good, a little scared at the time,” said Cervelli.
AJ Burnett threw about 10 changeups today. This is the reason he gave to reporters after the game as to why he’s working on it. “I’m a .500 pitcher and there’s a reason behind that. I know I’ve battled injuries in the past, but over three-quarters of my career I’m a two-pitch pitcher,” Burnett said.
Yankee fans got to see Andrew Brackman in action today. It wasn’t pretty. In one inning he allowed two runs on three hits and a home run.
George Steinbrenner was also in attendance today. It was the second spring game he’s been to this year.
