Head SHOTS, Hockey or traditional mask?

mrm21711 had commented on another thread that, "professional umpire Rick Reed was hit in the head with a foul ball and left the game last week. He was replaced by Brian Knight." mrm21711 provided the following link.

I also saw an umpire take one on the noggin during the late innings of the Cubs-White Sox series in mid-June. Would anyone care to could provide details/commentary/follow-up on either event?

Any more PRO Head SHOT stories out there? For some strange reason, I seem to find reading about this subject interesting. Perhaps its my love for baseball, my subconcious fear of the violent nature of that event, and the fact that I find myself entertained by "some other DEER caught in the head lights." Am I normal?

PLAY FAIR! LL to NCAA Head SHOT stories are also welcome.
