A very scary thing occurred during a spring training baseball game between the Cincinnati Reds and the Kansas City Royals. Reds pitcher Aroldis Chapman, who throws right around 100mph on average, was struck directly in the face by a line drive off the bat of a Royals player. The reason I mention how fast he throws is because that velocity, combined with the swing of the bat literally turned the baseball into a mini rocket as it hit his face. He laid on the ground in agony and at one point completely lost consciousness according to teammates. Thankfully he will undergo surgery to insert a place in his face under his eye, but other than that it does not appear any long term injuries will occur from the freak play. He should be on the field again in about two months.
