Miguel Cabrera Leaves Spring Training Game After Being Hit In the Eye

The entire Tigers fanbase had a minor heart attack today when Miguel Cabrera left their Spring Training game against somebody (seriously, who cares?) after being hit in the eye by an errant ground ball. If you like blood and stuff, video is here. He went to a nearby hospital for x-rays, which were negative. He did receive a few stitches and what I can imagine will be a pretty nasty shiner.

As bad as I feel for Cabrera, I feel infinitely worse for the next baseball* that gets pitched to him. I can imagine that Miggy will have a little bit of frustration to work out.

*Except not really, because baseballs aren’t people.
