Jameson Taillon Takes 105 MPH Line Drive To Head, Stays In Game

During the second inning of this evening’s Pirates-Brewers game, Pittsburgh pitcher Jameson Taillon took a line drive straight to the head. Apparently, the ball came off the bat towards Taillon’s dome at 105 MPH. He stayed down some two minutes before popping up, staying in, and eventually stepping up to bat later in the inning (he struck out swinging).

You can watch video of the entire play here. We’ll update this post if Taillon’s status changes at all.
