I was behind the plate, where I think I have a good stance and mechanics. The pitch was high and fast and the catcher did not get a glove on it. I apparently had set up with my head ever so slightly down.
The ball barely missed my mask and hit the metal button on the top of my cap, glancing off to the backstop. It drew an ever so slight amount of blood, but I think that was about the most painful thing I have ever felt.
