May 11, 2010 - Fullerton, Calif. - Cal State Fullerton baseball received some uplifting news Tuesday evening as noted orthopedist Dr. Lewis Yocum found that there is no structural damage to sophomore Tyler Pill's right elbow following an examination and MRI last week. The Titan right-handed pitcher and right fielder had been dealing with elbow soreness and arm fatigue after throwing from both the mound and the outfield, leading to the initial visit with the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim team physician. - http://mbd.scout.com/mb.aspx?s=45&f=2231&t=5940728
