In a frightening scene, Kansas City Royals pitcher Ryan Yarbrough was able to walk off the field after being hit in the face with a line drive Sunday.
The incident took place in the top of the sixth inning of Kansas City's home game against the Oakland A's. With the Royals leading 2-1 with one out, Yarbrough threw a 3-2 sinker to A's first baseman Ryan Noda, who hit a comebacker. Yarbrough tried to duck as he completed his followthrough, but the line drive hit him on the left side of his face.
