HBT: Bastardo loses fight with exercise equipment

After Antonio Bastardo gave up one run on two hits in an inning of work Wednesday night against the Twins, he decided to take his frustrations out on a squat machine in the weight room at Target Field. Bad idea.

Matt Gelb of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports that Bastardo walked away with a large gash above his left eye, which was ?nearly swollen shut? after last night?s game. Phillies manager Charlie Manuel told Jim Salisbury of CSNPhilly.com this morning that he could have an infection. The southpaw is unlikely to pitch today and could be rested for a couple more days until the swelling goes down.

And no, it is not OK to use Bastardo?s injury as an excuse to avoid the gym this weekend.
