A couple games ago with my West Chester team, Jerry Batts was injured in the first half as you can see by the message in the play by play

02:52   28-41 The refs have stopped play. Jerry Batts is in a lot of pain and is being checked by the trainers. He's holding his shoulder. It doesn't look like he is going to be able to return to the game.


With that type of message, I expected I would get a message from the trainer telling me he would miss a few games. But I did not receive any message from my trainer, and his health stayed at 100.

It didn't make sense. I've had experienced minor injuries in the past, which allowed the player to return to the game, and I got a message from the trainer and their health was around 95. But Batts had an injury which kept him out of the game, and I didn't get a message and his health stayed at 100.

So my question is if anyone has seen this before and is it ticket worthy?

I've had it happen before...kid misses the rest of the game and is good to go for the following contest. Think of it as he was held out of the rest of the game for precautionary reasons and then is found to be alright afterward when he can be evaluated more thoroughly or something. Happens in the real world and I assume this sort of injury is designed to model the "routine" nicks and scrapes that cost players one game but harbor no long-term impacts, so I'd say no ticket.
