Padres All-Star Jason Adam carted off field with season-ending injury in crushing scene
NY Post
The Padres’ road to an NL West crown became harder Monday night when All-Star reliever Jason Adam reportedly suffered a season-ending ruptured tendon in his left quadriceps.
Adam collapsed while reacting to an infield single hit up the middle by Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson, and exited the field on a cart.
“I felt the pop right away, felt it kind, felt like a quad kind of rolled up, so I kinda knew it wasn’t good,” Adam said after the Padres’ 4-3 loss. “It was pain at first, and then you can kind of come to like, ‘Hey, did we get the out?’ Then, it’s just waiting to hear how long.”
Adam, 34, has played a large role in why the Padres’ 3.11 bullpen ERA is the best in the sport.
He’s 8-4 with a 1.93 ERA spanning 65 1/3 innings, striking out 70 batters in that time.
The Padres are in position to win the NL West, thanks to their strong bullpen, and trail the Dodgers by 2 1/2 games, but losing such a key contributor at this point in the season is a tough blow.
