OAKLAND, Calif. -- Los Angeles Angels pitcher Matt Shoemaker underwent surgery to stop bleeding on his brain after he was struck in the head by a line drive against the Seattle Mariners.Shoemaker had the procedure performed late Sunday and is being treated by Dr. Manuel Ferreira of the University of Washington Medical Center. Los Angeles athletic trainer Adam Nevala is staying with Shoemaker until he is able to travel to Southern California, perhaps as soon as in a few days.General manager Billy Eppler provided the update Monday in Oakland, saying Shoemaker had been receiving CT scans every 2/3 hours when the third image showed increased bleeding, shortly before 9 p.m. Thats when surgery was determined the next step.The CT scan confirmed or when they actually did the operation that confirmed where the bleeding was, Eppler said. They were able to access that area. They were able to seal it, stop the bleeding. He was wheeled back up into recovery and is recovering fine.With one out in the second inning, Shoemaker was hit on the right side of the head on a sharp liner off the bat of Kyle Seager -- a ball with an exit velocity of 105 mph, according to MLB Statcast. He was able to turn his head slightly to avoid a direct blow to his face but was unable to get his glove up in time.Shoemaker went to the ground immediately as medical staff rushed to the field. He was down for several minutes being tended to and was bleeding from the spot where he was hit. Teammates knelt around the mound and Seager anxiously watched from first base.Shoemaker eventually walked off the field with athletic trainers at his side.Eppler said the 29-year-old Shoemaker -- placed on the 15-day disabled list Monday -- is expected to make a full recovery and be ready for next season.Yeah, as far as I know, he said.The Angels expect Shoemaker to be cleared to travel back to Southern California sometime this week.The GM has been in touch with Shoemakers wife, Danielle, while Nevala spoke to Shoemaker on Monday.He feels good, as good as he can feel, Eppler said.Manager Mike Scioscia had reached out to Shoemaker by text message, not wanting to bother him yet with a phone call.Everybodys been texting him. I dont think anyone wants to call him right now, Scioscia said. Weve exhaled a little bit since. They monitored him and decided they needed to do surgery. They went in there and hopefully corrected what was causing the bleeding. Hes resting comfortably and everything looks like its taken care of. Now its just the recuperation process for Matty. Our thoughts and prayers are with him.Demoted right-hander Tim Lincecum is a candidate to fill Shoemakers rotation spot.Theres a number of candidates, Scioscia said. Havent decided on what the final look will be, but Tim threw a really good game last night.The Angels recalled right-hander A.J. Achter from Triple-A Salt Lake, while righty Daniel Wright also joined the club. Stitched USA Soccer Jerseys .

RIO DE JANEIRO -- Tony Parker is keeping his minutes down as he gets back into game shape.Good thing for France he was ready to play at the end.Parker hit the go-ahead jumper with 31 seconds left, and the French beat Serbia 76-75 on Monday in an Olympic mens basketball game.Sitting on the bench for most of the fourth quarter as Serbia built a lead, Parker came back on late to help Frances run of six straight points to end the game.I was waiting for my moment, Parker said.It didnt appear one would be necessary after the French raced to a 20-4 lead. But Serbia rallied and had a 75-70 advantage before Nando de Colo scored four straight points.Parker, who had finally checked back into the game with about 3 + minutes left, then got the ball toward the corner as the shot clock was winding down and launched a shot that he said felt good as soon as it left his hands.Parker has won four championships with the San Antonio Spurs and was the MVP of the 2007 NBA Finals, but its not often he gets a feeling like Monday.Its awesome, Parker said. Its not every day you hit almost a buzzer-beater, a game-winning shot against a great team. Serbia has an unbelievable team. It was a great win for us.Parker missed some time with his French teammates as his wife delivered their second son, Liam, on July 29. Parker then rejoined the squad for his second Olympics, but early in the tournament hes only playing about 20-25 minutes as he rebuilds is conditioning.So he had a seat on the France bench while Serbias lead grew to as much as seven points in the final period. He came back on as the Serbians were making two free throws that made it 75-70.We didnt want to burn his energy too soon, French coach Vincent Collet said.France, considered a medal contendeer, has won two in a row after dropping its Olympic opener.dddddddddddd Parker became the EuroBasket career scoring leader in last summers tournament, but the French lost to Spain in the semifinals, forcing them to win an Olympic qualifying tournament his summer.There was initial fear Parker, 34, could miss the tournament after his wife became pregnant, but he was available to help the French secure their spot in early July. The French are a close-knit group staying together in the Olympic village, and Parker wanted to be a part of it.I love being in the village, he said. Its part of the Olympic experience being with everybody and sharing experiences with all the other athletes and meeting everyone. Thats what I like the most is meeting all the other athletes and enjoying ourselves. Its been a great experience.And its getting better for a French team that was routed by Australia in its opener.The French looked sharp early in this one during a blistering start in front of top-ranked Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic, who watched his home country after he was eliminated in singles earlier in the Olympics.The lead got away from France, and the game almost did, too. A careless turnover after Parkers jumper when de Colo threw an ill-advised alley-oop instead of trying to run out the clock gave Serbia one last chance, and Bogdan Bogdanovics shot from inside halfcourt bounced out at the buzzer.It couldnt get any closer, Parker said.But when it didnt fall, the French had a win worth celebrating.We had a rough start and now I feel like were back to our identity and were playing a lot better, Parker said.
