Yankees Low-A manager Rachel Balkovec posted a picture on Instagram announcing she was OK after getting hit by a ball in a batting cage, and showing off her face injury.
“Well I *DID* have several modeling contracts lined up, but this put a wrench in those plans,” she said in her post. “Thanks for all of the messages—Just feeling extremely lucky, and also like I’ll never throw side flips again for the rest of eternity. This is why you have to life your life in a way that you’re okay leaving it at any moment. Not a minute to waste being, thinking or playing small.
