Oakland Athletics pitcher Ken Waldichuk undergoes elbow procedure

Oakland Athletics left-hander Ken Waldichuk underwent a procedure to remove scar tissue from his pitching elbow to help alleviate pain he experienced after his final start this past season. Waldichuk pitched Sept. 29 on the road against the Los Angeles Angels and then began experiencing discomfort. The 25-year-old Waldichuk was first examined by Dr. Mike Freehill at Stanford and then also by Dr. Neil ElAttrache.
