During a game in Frisco, Texas for Houston’s Double-A squad, Delino DeShields, Jr.’s face decided it wanted to play too and ended up catching a 90 mph fastball to the cheek. He now looks like the Elephant Man.
DeShields managed to walk off the field under his own power. Astros GM Jeff Lunhow said he was diagnosed with a non-displaced maxillary sinus fracture. In normal people speak that translates to “his face is fucked.”
