A New York Yankees broadcaster was hit in the face by foul ball coming at him at a considerable pace with the moment being caught on camera.
The long-time Yankees play-by-play caller John Sterling was left bloodied by the rogue ball on Saturday win over the Boston Red Sox. In the ninth innings, Red Sox third baseman and All-Star Justin Turner's hit flew off the bat into the foul zone which travelled at pace towards Sterling.
The announcer had seen it coming, but did not think it would reach him before the ball can be seen flying at his face and hitting him. On the call, Sterling had said: "Now the 3-2 (pitch), swung on, a pop foul back here."
