nothing too major here but yesterday (15 yr. old tourn.) I took a foul ball directly in the left hand, about where a watch would be worn. hurt like hell and I could barely hold on to the indicator my hand was in so much pain.
today: 14 yr. old tournament, right handed batter hits a foul ball off the catchers mask (hockey styled, so it deflects pretty well) and into my left bicep, stung like hell and left a hell of a mark. then in the next game I took a ball that skipped off the dirt right into my right forearm. that one caught the bone rather than the meat, and ended up being a lifesaver for the catcher because it kept the runner on 3rd from scoring. after that I got lots of cheers for the good block.
