Message: [QUOTE="Excalibur, post: 3265922, member: 62"] Last year my kid's idiot manager put someone who had never played baseball before at first base. Kid hits a slow roller back to the mound on the third base side -- pitcher picks it up, turns, and fires a strike to first. It goes right over the kid's glove and hits him in the face. I want to vomit when I think about the sound it made -- kind of a cross between a ball hitting a bat and a mud puddle -- as it hit him on the eyeball and cheekbone. Poor kid had a fractured cheekbone, all kinds of damage to his eye, and a concussion that kept him out of school until November. [/QUOTE]
