Several years ago my brother and I were working a HS game with my brother at the plate. He took a cup shot in the last inning but managed to finish the game. His...umm...."equipment" swelled up like a balloon and he wound up spending the rest of the afternoon in the hospital getting an ultrasound. Apparently there have been cases where a testicle can spin around in the scrotum, cut off circulation, dies, and must be removed.
Fortnuately, that didn't happen on this day.
