I saw a photo in the Cleveland Plain Dealer (print edition) while vacationing in Ohio. It showed Ben Broussard getting hit by a pitch at the exact moment of impact. Quite a vivid impression!

Here's the link

Reminds me of the soda can that the pitching coach gets embedded into his forehead in the beginning of Maximum Overdrive.
