CSI: Tacoma
From today's Under The Knife (subscription required):
Diamondbacks prospect Conor Jackson was talking on his cell phone near the Tacoma visitors clubhouse, which is located just beyond the 16-foot high left-field wall. A home-run ball cleared the fence, beaning him and knocking him unconscious, if only briefly. Jackson was taken to a local hospital for observation, but appears to be fine. His oh-so-sensitive teammates taped off the outline of his fallen body for pictures.
Will Carroll confirms this with the Tacoma PA guy.
Of course, it's only funny in retrospect.
Appropos of virtually nothing, I've been to the Tacoma ballpark. Decent ballpark, great location...
