I recall getting hit in the face mask one time this year with a fast ball in a 4A varsity HS game. It was not a foul ball, but the catcher did not get a glove on it. I tracked it right from the pitcher's hand to my mask, as I was locked in the GD. The mask leaped off my head and landed at my feet and I looked at the catcher and said "is that the best you can do?".

similar thing happened to me, except it was a college game last fall and i took an upper 80s fastball to the left bicep. i was locked in, ball came up and in, and F2 didnt get back over in time to catch it (he was setup way way outside). that felt great...
