First inning of a DH this weekend - my youngest pitcher (10U team, she's league age 8) is starting the game and going along ok. Cleanup comes up and hits the first pitch like a rocket and hits my pitcher in the shoulder and bounces off her mask. Girl goes down in a heap. Once time called, we run out there and she's in a bit of pain but says she is ok. I thought she took it off the mask and then got the shoulder (thankfully it was the other way). She finished the inning and came off and promptly started crying and her shoulder was bruised already.
Called mom today and she's sore but fine - thank god for wearing the mask and it wasn't a few inches up and to the left.
