Whatever, he whacked umpire Don Denkinger while running for a foul ball in the first inning last night. The hand puffed up and [Kelly Gruber] departed for x-rays in the third inning. The pictures revealed a crack in the bone, midway between the wrist and knuckles. Dr. Allan Gross examined Gruber last night and planned a bone scan for today. Either way, Jays figure Gruber won’t be out of action for more than a few days. Gruber hit Denkinger as both ran, looking up, for the foul ball, which was not caught.

The Royals’ starting center fielder for the first 2 1/2 months of the season, [Mike] Loggins now plays on a less-than-regular basis. Omaha, after scraping to field a healthy lineup for almost a month, now is a team with a talent overload. “We have an abundance of players right now,” said Loggins, who drove in four runs Sunday night as Omaha rallied for an 8-7 victory over Syracuse at Rosenblatt Stadium. Loggins, who missed six weeks with a hand injury, isn’t alone in trying to adjust to a changing role. Omaha Manager Sal Rende said he has had at least three meetings with players concerned about a drop in playing time as the Royals have added players.

FLIGHT ATTENDANT Yeoung Shen Wednesday became the first crew member of the United Airlines flight that crashed in Iowa last month to file a negligence suit. Shen, 26, of 6432 N. Ridge, remains in the intensive care unit at Evanston Hospital with head, leg and hand injuries, said her attorney, Philip H. Corboy. She sued United Airlines; McDonnell Douglas Corp., which built the DC-10 airliner, and General Electric Co., manufacturer of the plane’s jet engines. A second suit against the same defendants was filed by Corboy on behalf of a surviving passenger, Bruce Benham, 38, of Littleton, Colo. More than a dozen lawsuits, including a multimillion-dollar class-action suit, have been filed. A 33-YEAR-OLD West Side man in custody for assault at the Town Hall District police station apparently hanged himself, police said Wednesday. Lelo Mormolijo, of 5756 W. Grand, was pronounced dead at 7:20 p.m. Tuesday, according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office. Mormolijo was found at 5:45 p.m. hanging from the bars of his cell by his underwear after police had checked on him five minutes earlier, police said. Mormolijo was the only person in the cell at the time, police said.

Track and field — The International Amateur Athletic Federation (IAAF), the world body governing track and field, carried out unannounced testing at national championship meetings in Hamburg, West Germany, and Barcelona, Spain, this month but did not disclose results … The IAAF will discuss action to strip Ben Johnson of the 100-meter world record at its congress in Barcelona next month. Johnson has tested positive for steroids … Canadian officials rejected random drug-testing in sports seven years ago over concern about athletes’ rights, a government inquiry was told in Toronto. Boxing — Mike Tyson’s first-round knockout of Carl “The Truth” Williams should be declared “no contest” and a rematch held because the bout was stopped prematurely, said Williams’ manager. Ira Leibowitz requested the ruling in a letter to boxing’s three main sanctioning bodies and the New Jersey State Athletic Commission … Edwin Rosario pulled out of Sunday’s scheduled World Boxing Association lightweight title defense against Lupe Suarez because of a hand injury … Alex “The Destroyer” Stewart, who has knocked out his first 24 opponents to tie Mac Foster’s 19-year-old record, will try to break the mark against Evander Holyfield (22-0, 18 knockouts) at Atlantic City, N.J.

One reason the Aggies are short on defensive ends is the move this fall of Pat Cunningham to offensive guard. Cunningham, a 6-foot-7, 290-pound junior college transfer, is battling junior Mike Pappas for the starting left-guard spot. [Slocum] said he prefers to leave Cunningham at guard despite heavy losses in the defensive line. … Wally Hartley, moved from tight end to guard, is out indefinitely with a hand injury and pulled hamstring. … Sean Wilson and Kevin Ellis are locked in a duel for the punting job. …

Mr. Scannell, 54 years old, talks freely about trying new initiatives if the Senate confirms his nomination by President Bush to head the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. He suggests his efforts could include promulgating the agency’s first standard to protect on-the-job motor-vehicle drivers, boosting the size of criminal fines for the most egregious employer workplace violations, and substantially expanding efforts to reduce carpal tunnel syndrome, which involves arm, wrist and hand injuries resulting from repetitive motions. It’s unusual for a nominee to speak so freely about his agenda before the Senate acts on his confirmation. Mr. Scannell emphasizes that carrying out his ideas obviously hinges on his being cleared by the Senate; lawmakers haven’t yet scheduled action on the nomination. But the prospective new OSHA chief leaves no doubt that he’d be an activist. He exudes quiet confidence with a deceptively friendly — but nonetheless tough-minded — style. Mr. Scannell evidently has convinced Joseph Kinney, the institute’s director, of his dedication to worker health and safety. Mr. Kinney founded the group after his younger brother was killed in a construction accident. He worried initially that the nominee would be “just a smoother version” of his predecessor, John Pendergrass, whom Mr. Kinney regarded as not tough enough. But since Mr. Scannell has been willing to confer with Mr. Kinney, and because of the nominee’s comments about what OSHA needs to do, Mr. Kinney now talks hopefully that Mr. Scannell will make OSHA a hard-hitting agency.

Rance Mulliniks (eight), Lloyd Moseby (10) and Ernie Whitt (10) have a combined 28 years experience in Toronto. Their only prize is a single American League East title in 1985; mostly, they are burdened by memories of unfulfilled promise. Mulliniks started slowly but rebounded when handed the third base while Kelly Gruber recovered from a hand injury. Rance loves being around the game. He knows this may be his final season and he’s savoring every moment despite being reduced to pinch-hitting duty. Unlike Whitt and Moseby, he spent part of his career with other clubs, the Kansas City Royals and California Angels. The 1980 Royals, for whom he was a little-used scrub player, beat Oakland and went on to the Series.

“It all happened so fast, I can’t even remember much of it,” said Kim Jolviet, watching her daughter sleep at Long Beach Memorial Hospital. Tiny Adashia, only 19 pounds, was reported in fair condition after her ordeal, suffering only some minor head and hand injuries. Adashia, who was not in a child-restraining seat, was thrown out and landed near a back tire of the car after the vehicle rolled over and came up on its wheels. The impact broke out all the glass, and Adashia went flying through a back window. Adashia Jolviet, 2, thrown through a car window in a freeway accident in Seal Beach, sleeps while her mother, Kim, watches. The child sustained minor head and hand injuries. / LACY ATKINS / Los Angeles Times

Nina Shtroper, 83, was killed instantly as she crossed Sderot Eshkol near Rehov Mishmar Hagvul. Shtroper and her 80-year-old brother, Yosef, were not using a pedestrian crossing. The brother later died at Hadassah-University Hospital, Ein Kerem. Police believe nationalist motives are behind the appearance of two boulders blocking traffic on the Jerusalem-Tel Aviv highway near Sha’ar Hagai on Sunday afternoon. A search did not turn up suspects. Also in the Jerusalem Corridor, near Abu Ghosh, the Jerusalem-Tel Aviv train was stoned on Tuesday afternoon, causing a driver to receive light hand injuries. There have been no arrests.

Most injuries in meatpacking relate to repetitive motion trauma, which health-care professionals are just now beginning to recognize as a major workplace problem. Meatpacking has a bad problem with repetitive motion injuries largely because the industry has never found an economic way to introduce automation on a large scale. In fact, meatpacking workers still slaughter and cut meat in much the same way as 50 years ago, and the rapid and constant use of butcher knives and related tools to bone and cut meat leads to severe arm, wrist and hand injuries, primarily carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel syndrome is a severe inflammation of nerves in the wrist that leads to a loss of strength and movement.

Such afflictions are not uncommon. In recent years, doctors across the country have encountered growing numbers of professional musicians who confront pain when they play – trumpet players who temporarily lose the use of their lips, violinists with aching necks and clarinetists with injured right thumbs, which sustain the full weight of their two-pound instruments. “They simply play and practice too much,” said Dr. Hunter Fry, an Australian plastic surgeon who has treated a number of musicians with hand injuries. “They take their muscles and ligaments beyond their biological upper limit.” Rock musicians may even face added risks because of their playing environment. Dr. Craig Weil, an Atlanta orthopedist who has treated band members with Bruce Springsteen and Prince, said that in addition to hearing loss from loud music they have chronic colds and respiratory infections because of the smoke and fog machines they use for special effects.
