Pujols told me to send you a personal apology about Chris Young and Josh Bard.
I hope they recover quickly, and that Chris Young will be unaffected by the close call.
Its kind of surprising this kind of thing doesnt happen more often. Of course there was that Japanese pitcher who got drilled a couple of years ago. And Mike Coolbaugh. And Cardinal Encarnacion Juan, not Edwin) was hit by an Aaron Miles foul ball in eye. Ended his career.
Watching the clip of Young getting hit makes me wince every time.
