BASEBALL : DAILY REPORT : AROUND THE MAJOR LEAGUES
Pitcher Mike Harkey of the Chicago Cubs will undergo diagnostic arthroscopic surgery on his right shoulder Thursday.
Harkey, who has been placed on the 15-day disabled list, was 0-2 with a 5.30 earned-run average in four starts. On April 26 at Cincinnati, Harkey left after three innings, complaining of shoulder pain.
The Cubs recalled right-hander Bob Scanlan, who was 2-0 with a 2.95 ERA with Iowa of the triple-A American Assn.
A woman claiming she was injured by a ball Cincinnati pitcher Rob Dibble threw into the stands after a game Sunday said she has filed a complaint with the Reds.
Dibble hurled the ball into the center-field stands at Riverfront Stadium after giving up two runs in a 4-3 victory over the Chicago Cubs.
“I couldn’t feel anything from the shoulder down,” said Meg Porter, 27, whose bruised left arm was in a splint. “I couldn’t talk.”
