Update on Ellie Hendricks

Following up on the condition of bullpen coach Elrod Hendricks, he's currently in rehab after suffering a mild stroke, and chances are good that he will be able to have a full recovery.

Team trainer Richie Bancells is being applauded for his insistence that Hendricks seek medical attention as soon as he complained of dizziness and numbness in his left side.

``Richie's rapid response to the situation greatly diminished the severity of the stroke. It's as simple as that,'' Orioles vice president Mike Flanagan said Saturday.

No timetable has been set for a return to uniform for Ellie, but let's hope he's back in his familiar position in the 'pen before the season's out.
