At the onset of this video from Al Sadd's 2-0 win over the Suwon Samsung Bluewings, Choi Sung-hwan of the latter's head gets jacked up.

The Caps And Pens Were Acting So Maturely For A While There

Here's Video Of Josh Hamilton's Bat Apparently Hitting A Detroit Fan In The Head
ALCS. Top of the sixth. Man on second. One out. His Texas Rangers down 2-1. That's when Josh Hamilton lost his grip on a swing which, in turn, sent his bat into a front-row Tigers fan's head.
