South Carolina's de Kort to Miss Season
The doctors have spoken and <Barend de Kort:player#9227> of the <South Carolina Jackrabbits:team#181> didn't like what he heard. The 36-year-old starting pitcher is almost certainly gone for the rest of the year and depending on his progress could miss some of next season as well. de Kort sustained his season-ending injury during the <Indiana Gophers:team#195> game yesterday at Jackrabbits Ballpark. He had to leave the game because he hurt himself while throwing a pitch. Today the <South Carolina:team#181> medical staff reported <de Kort:player#9227> had a stretched elbow ligament and would be absent from the lineup for at least 9-10 months.

This year <de Kort:player#9227> has registered 3 wins and 3 losses in 15 starts with a 3.13 ERA while registering 59 strikeouts and 23 walks in 95 innings.
