    ^ Saw it live, it didn't look (or sound) good.

    Saw quite a bit of blood. Hope he's ok.

    I hate how baseball keeps going when that happens. Dude got a triple out of that (or so I read).

    Does anybody remember the Astros home game 2 years ago when Lance Berkman absolutely ripped one at I think one of the Brewers pitchers? I remember it was his first career start if I remember correctly, and the ball hit the pitchers head so hard that the ball flew way up in air, and landed back, behind the catcher. The pitcher's legs were violently shaking, it looked like he was having a seizure.

    I was there, and damn, I had never seen anything like that. Crazy. I'm praying for JA Happ, I remember really liking and rooting for him when he was part of the trade for Oswalt.
