Just ask Gregg Bonin-This was after he was hit with the bat earlier in the year but had recovered and was not experiencing any headaches any more when

"I went to the outside shoulder for one pitch," Bonin says of a practice umpires no longer use. "Cordero took a hack at that inside pitch. I barely remember."

The foul tip knocked off Bonin's mask as it hit him on the chin. Marlins manager John Boles said Bonin "was out before he hit the ground." He was carried off on a stretcher and taken to a hospital.
