On the dark side: Of the other half-dozen reports I've read about this, all called it a "foul tip".

This shows that perhaps the MiLB study done last season that showed both the frequency and seriousness of concussions were greater while wearing an HSM.

As I stated I did not put a lot of value in last summer's study as it was anecdotal with not enough raw information. But there could be a trend coming up.

Kerwin Danly just got knocked unconscious by a broken bat to the side of the head. And he was also wearing an HSM. If this thread doesn't get locked for no reason I'll post the clip of it that will be on mlb.com

Excuse me for thinking he was wearing long sleeves......:)

I suppose it was just the base umpires in the long sleeve smock with the zip off sleeves. Either way they still changed to the powder blue.

Game time 3:49. That top of the 2nd inning ran 33 minutes by itself.

Don't know if he was unconscious, but he took a hellava shot.
