what happens when your glove is low and the baseball finds a pebble and hops high? Pain. Pain is what happens. The baseball strikes you.
Readers my age may remember the seventh game of the 1960 World Series that turned the home team's way when a double play grounder to Yankees' shortstop Tony Kubek hit a pebble, took a bad hop, and hit him in the throat. Kubek was removed from the game, and the Pirates rallied to take the lead. The game ended on a walkoff home run by Bill Mazeroski, still one of the most famous home runs in baseball history.
