BBQ Too Hot to Handle for Thompson Wednesday, October 26th, 2022 Northern Lions BC reliever Ted Thompson required medical attention yesterday after severely burning himself while barbecuing at his home. Thompson suffered first and second degree burns when a flame from the grill he was using suddenly shot up his right arm. "It was a pretty scary scene," said teammate Jonathan Cook, who was with Thompson when the accident occurred. "I thought it was going to totally engulf him for a moment." The fire also singed Ted Thompson's hair and eyebrows, but luckily failed to ignite the shirt he was wearing at the time. "It honestly could have been much worse," said Cook. The injury will reportedly keep Thompson out of action for anywhere from 3 weeks up to a month, but doctors expect the burns to fully heal. |
