Mets' Martinez gets injection for sore hip
Published 7/17/2008 at FOXSports.com News for MLB
Pedro Martinez got a cortisone shot Thursday to heal his strained groin, forcing the New York Mets to push back his next start by at least a couple of days.
The 36-year-old right-hander strained groin muscles while running the bases on July 7, an injury that hasn't fully healed. He got an injection in New York to speed the process, and players are told to rest for 48 hours after they get a cortisone shot.
