Sugiyama Gets a Shock, Will Miss Time: Burning Dragons reliever Hirohisa Sugiyama received medical attention yesterday after suffering minor burns at his home. Sugiyama was apparently attempting to fix an appliance when he received an electrical shock that burned his left hand. According to teammate Iemitsu Ogawa, who spoke to Sugiyama shortly after the accident, the injury will likely keep Sugiyama out of action for the next few days, but there is no reason to believe he will suffer any long-term side effects.
