Tavzava Legithraviel out for the season!

RIVENDELL - Reliever Tavzava Legithraviel, the older sister of starting pitcher and teammate Tavus Legithraviel, won't be sending her little brother anymore tips from the bullpen this season. In a 14-12, 10-inning rollercoaster of a game on July 14, she was lifted after throwing 19 pitches. Tavzava came in at the top of the 6th with the Royals leading, 10-6. After pitching the 6th and getting 1 out in the 7th, she heard something pop in her shoulder on the last pitch of a walk to Cinquefoil Boartooth. Later examination revealed a severe case of bone chips in her throwing shoulder, and she will need surgery to repair it. This is her second injury this season. Earlier, she was out for 5 weeks with a ruptured tricep tendon.
