Reds closer Aroldis Chapman hit in the face with line drive
Looks pretty serious.
Game cancelled.
Medical staff, ambulances--- doesn't look good.

Yeah I started thread too, first time I ever saw a game shortened due to "injury". Do you have any video? Nothing on You Tube yet.

That Reds game was brutal. Just saw where an ump was sent to the hospital after catching a liner with his crotch
