An MRI showed no structural damage to Mr. Giles' elbow. However, Dr. Meister treated the pitcher with a cortisone shot. This is the third time since June that Mr. Giles had issues with his elbow.

Dr. Meister is a fellowship trained orthopedic surgeon and head team physician for the Texas Rangers.

He is also director of sports medicine of Medical City Arlington in Texas.
