Published

Take a breath Angels fans, Garrett Richards will be fine.

The pitcher was removed from his first start of the year in the fifth inning after showing some discomfort after a pitch.

Angels PR tweeted that Richards only suffered cramping in his right biceps.








Richards gave up only three hits and one walk while striking out four in 4 2/3 innings of work against the Athletics on Wednesday night.

Richards missed all but six starts in 2016 after suffering a tear in his ulnar collateral ligament in his elbow.
