I assume you didn't make the play?
Sorry for the unnecessary sarcasm...we've all been there...imagine being a pitcher and being even closer on every play...no thanks.

I pitch pretty poorly for an even worse team. I figure I might get dinged sometime this season...but I honestly never feel better or younger than when I play softball...it's GREAT. It's even better now that I can play with my 16 year old, who is twice the player I ever thought about being.

Wow, that hurts, I don't have a picture, but, was playing 2nd base in Las Vegas Senior league. A left hander hit a one bouncer, hit just above the palm, then the chest, then the the chin, just about cut my tongue off. I just remember my Dad, get in front of the ball. WOW!

Definitely didn't make the play, the ball squibbed into right.
I had breakfast with my doctor the next day. He's a good guy. Told me that he couldn't really tell, but if I still had an eye in there when the swelling went down, and it didn't hurt, then I would be fine. Turns out all of the blood drained into my eye. So even though the swelling is down, I look nasty as ever. Kind of an inverse Cubs logo with red wrapped around the blue.

Been there too . . .
.
high school days. rain forced infield practice into gynasium. Beautiful golden-tone wood floor. I played third base. Final scorching grounder hit to me and I lose sight of the yellowed ball in that mass of golden wood. BAMM. Right above the left eye. Two perfect set of baseball stitched seams neatly imprinted above my eye. Teammate concern quickly changed to rip-roaring laughter. God, I loved those guys, and miss those days. Thanks for the brief opportunity to drift back 30+ years ago. Last edited by HexsHeroes; 06-01-2011 at 08:44 PM.
