Foul tip????

At least it looks like he'll be okay.

yeh but coming out of Verlander's hand and off of Big Daddy Vlady's bat that had to speed up a bit more. Im trying to remember the last one that really rocked me and can only truly remember one that caught me right between the eyes and put me on a knee.

Foul tip. Even from MLB.com

Note the mask Welke is wearing. Looks like a Dynalite.

Then Carlson comes on, with his... Wilson Shock FX.
