I've searched daily for news on Jimmy Nelson as well as that fan, that both got hit in the head with balls.

Today is the first news I found on it. That's crazy.

Still nothing on that fan though. The fan got hit square in the face by a line drive foul ball off Matt Holiday's bat.

Glad Jimmy's good, hope the same for the fan.
Counsell also revealed that Nelson is being shut down for the rest of the season in the wake of the line drive he took off his head in his last start last week.

Nelson suffered a contusion but avoided a concussion. He spent two nights in the hospital under observation and had been hoping to make at least one more start before the end of the year. He finishes with an 11-13 record, 4.11 ERA and 148 strikeouts in 177 1/3 innings.

The victory total, strikeout total and innings pitched all led the Brewers.

“The neurologist felt that, in his case, despite the fact that he didn’t have a concussion, he still had trauma to the head,” Counsell said.

“So in his view, it was best that we don’t take a risk so shortly after the moment happened.”
 
I got tickets for Saturday's game but got an engagement party to be at later in the day. I'm still going for opening pitch tho :lol:
