Pitt's starter just took a line drive off his head -- and he's looks hurt pretty bad ..
Got up and off the field ok, not as bad as the bryce florie incendent,

It bounced all the way back to the catcher and he almost caught it..would have been an out. Berkman hit that about as hard as you can. Glad the pitcher looks alright though.Comment -
Yeah definitely hope the guy is ok.
This does not bode well for the under.Comment -
Was wondering what the hold up was when looking at the live score....got Houston -1.5Comment -
Unreal that he was able to get up and walk after that, he could have been killed.
The sound it made was enough to make you sick.
Amazingly enough, he never lost consciousness and preliminary tests came back negative for any fractures.Comment -
To add insult to injury, no pun intended, he got the loss tonight too...Comment -
i saw that...was watching the score on my phone, as i had Houston, and figured the long delay after Berkman hit was for an injury..i felt this sealed the game as no way you can have a pen throw essentially 9 innings unprepared like that and still win, not usually anyway.Originally posted by ShortstopComment -
Amazingly enough, he only suffered a head contusion and a mild concussion. No bleeding or swelling of the brain.
Berkman is a class act, he went and visited with Jakubauskas at the hospital.
