Dodgers' Dustin May Eyes Return After Salad Incident

Dustin May, a pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers, experienced a life-threatening incident last July after a piece of lettuce got stuck in his throat, causing a severe tear in his esophagus. The event required emergency surgery, sidelining him for the rest of the season as he was rehabbing from previous arm surgeries. May initially dismissed the pain but was urged by his wife to seek medical attention, which he acknowledges likely saved his life. The surgery left him with a significant scar and necessitated a lengthy recovery, during which he couldn't lift more than 10 pounds. This ordeal has given May a new perspective on life as he prepares for a comeback, and he is hopeful to rejoin the Dodgers' rotation this season.
