Miami Marlins pitcher Dan Jennings gets hit in the head by a line drive off the bat of Pittsburgh Pirate Jordy Mercer.

Probably the most terrifying thing in baseball is when a hitter drills a pitcher (standing less than 60 feet away) in the skull with a line drive. Unfortunately that's what happened in a game between the Pittsburgh Pirates and Miami Marlins Thursday night, when Marlins hurler Dan Jennings took a screamer in the head leading to obvious disorientation as he scrambled around looking for the ball (we believe) for a second or two. Jennings did acknowledge the crowd as he was carted off, though we'll know more about how he's doing in the next couple of days.
