Wow; 15 responses, and no snide comments about the subject line? You guys are slipping. ;)

Seriously, hope you recover quickly. After a shot like that, it's tough getting back there, especially when there are lingering aftereffects.

Ear still hurting this far after, you probably ought to go get checked out.

Agreed.

Speaking from experience, if this is a concussion, you need the rest now. Another concussion so soon after suffering one is bad news.

I wear hearing aids and I think the earpiece got smashed into the ear canal and just bruised it. Hearing is fine, well other than requiring hearing aids. And yes I caught myself flinch a couple of times yesterday on high pitches.

Well, I thought about it.... ;)

Might want to think about investing in these:

Umpire Mask Protection System from Team Wendy

Damn! The only reason I read this thread was that I didn't notice the word "out" in the subject line the first time I read it. Imagine my disappointment. :cool:

just curious, what mask do you wear? glad your ok.

Just got the Honig mask with Team Wendy pads so far I really like it.

Its a Wilson but don't know model off the top of my head. Has not been my week have taken 3 more in the mask since that hit. I have apparently become a ball magnet.

Time to put you out in right field.
