Class act. Accepts the apology and understands there was no intent... Wasn't particularly a fan before..but finding many reasons to be one!

Until this man plays for your team it's tough to get the full appreciation. He is an unbelievable hitting expert. I'm a fan for life.

That was nice of the pitcher to check and see if he was alright.

At least it wasn't intentional. You can tell he was trying to throw high and inside, and missed his spot. Really seemed to care too when he hit Pujols in the head.

I was there and just hearing the impact.... scary.

That's honestly a pitchers worst nightmare. You are trying to sneak a ball past a hitter, and there is only so much strike zone. No pitcher hits his spot everytime. I only pitched in Bambino league and high school, but hitting the batter in the head was always more of a concern to me than giving up a hit or home run. Good on this pitcher and catcher to show serious concern, and good on Pujols for understanding it wasn't a dirty play.

He got up like it was just a flash knockdown.
He is a machine.

Props to Barnette for rushing out to support

I can't stand when fans just boo right away without even seeing if it was intentionally or not. Then the fact they keep booing after seeing the pitcher and catcher concerned about him. Sometimes that's baseball/pitching. It gets away from you. Don't mean you're trying to
