IN THE NEWS: Indianapolis (Triple A) lefty Randy Johnson, about to be recalled by the Expos, is forced to leave a game against Richmond after knocking down a line drive with his pitching hand. Angry at himself, Johnson reaches the dugout and punches the bat rack with his right hand. His left hand is okay, but his right hand is broken, delaying his recall.
