Herb Score, the Indians’ American League Rookie of Year winner in 1955, never fulfilled his promise after being hit by a shot off the bat of a New York Yankee that broke several bones in his face in 1957. Fearful of getting hit again, Score altered his motion and was never the same. “If you think it’s going to be difficult to come back, I don’t think you’ll ever be able to come back,” Kuroda said Saturday night. Minnesota’s Nick Blackburn, who was struck in the face by a drive off Bobby Abreu’s bat in 2008, said the key to getting back on the mound is having a short memory. “You can’t really go out and be scared and be worried and thinking about that,” Blackburn said in Minneapolis after Huff was hit. “But it’s not easy to not think about it. Especially after I got hit, it was always in the back of my mind. You can’t let that be your main focus or you won’t be able to do your job.” He added: “The more you get out there, the easier it gets.” Jakubauskas, who’s just beginning to throw bullpen sessions with- out feeling any effects of the concussion, is eager to step on the rub- Cyan Magenta Yellow Black
