Injured Baltimore Orioles shortstop Miguel Tejada won't be able to resume baseball activities for at least a month because of a fractured right wrist, and could be sidelined well into August.
Tejada played in 1,152 straight games -- the fifth-longest streak in baseball history -- before being placed on the 15-day disabled list Friday. The injury occurred on June 20, when he was hit by a pitch thrown by San Diego's Doug Brocail.
"There's nothing I can do," Tejada said Tuesday. "I don't want to be out. It's tough for me because I like to play baseball. I just hope I heal pretty good and can be back before [August]."
Tejada is batting .306 with seven homers. He ranks second on the team with 41 RBIs.
