On Thursday night, the Royals squared off against the Cardinals in interleague play, and St. Louis catcher Yadier Molina accidentally drilled Kansas City's Norichika Aoki in the head as he attempted to throw the ball back to the pitcher.
Aoki was not injured on the play which is good.
It might not seem like Molina is throwing hard, but well, getting hit in the ear hole from two feet away always hurts.
